AbRules - My AB testing gem

AbRules

AbRules is a light ruby library to fulfill A/B testing.

Inspired by Split, AbRules aims to simplify the A/B testing logic, focus on providing flexible rules to generate different contents.

Requirements

  • Ruby 1.9.3 or higher

Setup

gem install ab_rules

Usage

Example: A/B testing by ID

require "ab_rules"

AbRules.split_by_id(122, "control", "test")  #=> "control"
AbRules.split_by_id(333, "control", "test")  #=> "test"

AbRules.split_by_id(333, "control", "test") do |alternative|
  "The version is #{alternative}"
end

#=> "The version is test"

Example: A/B testing by rules

require "ab_rules"

SITES = [123, 567, 999]
NETWORKS = [1, 4, 6]

rules = [
  AbRules.rule(:control) do |subjects|
    subjects[:country] == "uk"
  end,

  AbRules.rule(:test) do |subjects|
    subjects[:id] && subjects[:id].even?
  end,

  AbRules.rule(:default)
]

AbRules.split_by_rule({ country: "uk" }, rules)  #=> :control
AbRules.split_by_rule({ id: 2 }, rules)  #=> :test
AbRules.split_by_rule({}, rules) do |content|
  "Cotent is #{content}"
end
#=> "Cotent is default"
