  • "A/B testing is used when one wishes to only test minor front-end changes on the website. Consider a scenario where an organization wishes to make significant changes to its existing page, such as wants to create an entirely new version of an existing web page URL and wants to analyze which one performs better. Obviously, the organization will not be willing to touch the existing web page design for comparison purposes. In the above scenario, performing Split URL testing would be beneficial. T"

In our case, we were using it for pre-release or announced release features for a specific group of users. We could at any point revert the experience or stop the feature and render the old product version of the product. Based on the success of the feature, we will then do a full rollout of the feature into production. How does it work ? Enable"
