7. This part of campaign creation allows you to measure the effectiveness of your campaign by:
* Tracking conversions for a specific goal.
* Comparing performance against a control group.
* Testing multiple variations of the message to identify a winning version.
By default, *Conversion Tracking* is disabled for all *WhatsApp campaigns.* As shown below, you can use the toggle switch to enable it. Turn On the toggle for the Conversion Tracking. You will see it has been divided into two sections:
* **Conversion Tracking**
* **Variation Distribution.**
However, depending on the number of message variations created by you, the view of *Conversion Tracking* will vary.
The *Conversion Tracking* can be set up by:
* Selecting a Conversion Event
* Selecting Conversion Deadline
* Selecting a Control Group (Optional)
If you have created multiple variations of the *Message,* you can choose to automate the testing process by enabling *Send Winning Variation Automatically*. [Detailed read](https://knowledgebase.webengage.com/docs/campaign-variations-testing)
Click on ***Save & Continue*** Button at the bottom right of the screen to move forward to "**Test Campaign**".
8. See how your *WhatsApp message* will appear to your customers by testing it with internal team members for maximum impact!
Click on ***Skip Test & Proceed*** Button after Testing at the bottom right of the screen to move forward to "**Preview & Launch**".
9. Once you are satisfied with the test results, it's time to send the message to your users! But before that, we recommend that you conduct a quick preview of the campaign's message and settings to ensure that it's in line with your end goal.
10. Once you Launch the Campaign, you can see the status under the List of Campaigns as shown in the below picture.
