Itā€™s all up to you. I usually accept everyone unless I had a previous bad experience. There is no magic number. Good luck with your test.

You can have as many testers as youd like! Testing is meant to double check your work and make sure the pattern is polished.

That being said, you dont need to have any testers, but its always highly reccomended to at least have a few to help you polish it up!

Itā€™s entirely up to you, you donā€™t need testers but itā€™s always good to double check the pattern to ensure its understandable to everyone

Thereā€™s no min/max you can accept however many you want, something to consider is the Karma they have. Karma is a point system here on Ribblr that lets you know how many completed tests a user has done.

One point = one completed test

The only way to get karma points is when the designer clicks the gift and remove option so make sure to only click that option to the testers who follow the tester rules you place (they finish on the due, communicate, etc) You can see this number when they apply. Keep in mind newcomers and those that donā€™t test often will have 0 to no karma points at all

Also feel free to search the community or help center with any keywords you may have and also take a look at the testing guidelines as well for help as well, happy crafting and good luck with tester calls! :smile:

Depending on the level of difficulty I would choose a different amount of testers, for me, typically if it is a hard long pattern I choose 2-3 people and for an easy pattern 4-5 that is how I do it personally. I also normally choose half people with lots of karma points and the other half without many karma points. This is so that new people can get karma points as well as I have a range of experience in the people testing the pattern. Hope this helped :))
