It's worth talking about in a wee bit more detail, but
@new_user.card_limit_for_free_trial = ab_test("user-card-limit-may-2012", [8, 15], :conversion => "purchase")
gives away a bit of it. (That's literally all the code. The old default was 15.)
Funnily enough, I mentioned I might do that test eventually on HN ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3864079 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3864079) and at the time panned its likelihood of success. Shows what I know, for the 495th time with A/B testing.
- Cass 14y agoInteresting. I remember you talking about how it likely wouldn't make much of a difference, because almost all parents have less than eight kids, and almost all teachers have more than 20, so the number of people who'd be induced to buy the software by an eight card limit shouldn't really be much higher than the number who'd need more than 15 cards, anyway. Any theories on why it ended up mattering after all?
