Laravel A/B Testing
===================

[](#laravel-ab-testing)

AB is a server-side A/B testing tool for Laravel applications and provides a pretty simple feature set that is a great free alternative to services like Optimizely. It allows you to experiment with different variations of your website while test selection will be handled automatically.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install using composer:

```
composer require bart/ab

```

Add the service provider to `app/config/app.php`:

```
Bart\Ab\ServiceProvider::class,

```

Register the AB alias:

```
'AB' => Bart\Ab\Facade::class,

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Publish the included configuration file like this:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Bart\Ab\ServiceProvider"

```

Next, edit the `config/packages/bart/ab/config.php` file. The following configuration options are available:

### Enabled

[](#enabled)

Enables or disbales the A/B testing.

```
'enabled' => true

```

### Default

[](#default)

If A/B testing is disbaled, `AB::getCurrentTest()` will return this.

```
'default' => 'none'

```

### Tests

[](#tests)

An array of test identifiers with an assigned level of distibution.

```
'tests' => [
    'teaser1' => 1,
    'teaser2' => 2,
    'teaser3' => 1,
]

```

The above (default) configuration will display teaser version 2 to 50% of your users, whereas version 1 and 3 will be displayed to 25% of your users each.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

After you have defined your tests and enabled testing in the config you can start designing your A/B tests. It's as easy as 1-2-3 because the only thing you need to do is displaying a different peace of content for each test. Let's assume you have defined the tests from above, your view could look like this:

```
@test('teaser1')
    Teaser 1 is being displayed
@endtest

@test('teaser2')
    Teaser 2 is being displayed
@endtest

@test('teaser3')
    Teaser 3 is being displayed
@endtest

```

### Tracking

[](#tracking)

This package doesn't handle any goal or conversion tracking because every company is approaching this in a slightly different way. We would suggest to use a custom Google Analytics dimension and pass the assigned test version in your master view:

```
dataLayer.push({'version': '{{ AB::getCurrentTest() }}'});

```
