Mecharius:
Maybe you need to define your ending point first? In other words, what do you want this thing to do? Goal / end state / objective. What ever you want to call it, you need to have a very clear picture of what this will do in absolute terms.
With that part done, you will have to define 'success'. This should assist in identifying variables. There are a number of different types of variables, but you ought to be able to figure out which ones have the most effect on your success criteria.
Once you have come up with a defined end state, success criteria, and variables, you need to figure out how you will conduct tests to determine if you succeeded. Being able to isolate variables will probably be a key to testing. Of course you will need to select the statistic or statistics you will use to evaluate your testing.
Hope this assists in your organization.
