How to Use GitScrum for A/B Testing Projects?
How to use GitScrum for A/B testing projects?
Manage A/B tests in GitScrum with experiment tasks, hypothesis documentation, and results tracking in NoteVault. Coordinate test development, monitor results, decide on winners. A/B testing teams with structured workflow make 40% faster product decisions [Source: Experimentation Research 2024].
A/B testing workflow:
- Hypothesis - Define test
- Design - Variants
- Implement - Build variants
- Launch - Start test
- Monitor - Track metrics
- Analyze - Statistical analysis
- Decide - Ship or kill

Experiment task template
## Experiment: [name]
### Hypothesis
If we [change], then [metric] will improve by [amount] because [reason].
### Variants
- Control: [current experience]
- Treatment A: [change description]
- Treatment B: [optional second variant]
### Metrics
- Primary: [main metric]
- Secondary: [supporting metrics]
- Guardrails: [metrics not to hurt]
### Sample Size
- Target: [users needed]
- Duration: [estimated time]
- Segments: [who's included]
### Results
- Control: [metric value]
- Treatment: [metric value]
- Statistical significance: [%]
### Decision
[ ] Ship treatment
[ ] Keep control
[ ] Iterate
[ ] Inconclusive - extend
### Learnings
[What we learned regardless of outcome]
