We\u2019re thrilled to announce that VWO Testing – Server Side now supports decision calculation using data from a specific project environment for your experiments.

Earlier, with VWO Testing – Server side, you could only segment reports specific to environments<\/a> under each project for their campaigns. The post-segment feature helps you get granular insights about campaign performance. However, VWO declares experiment winners based on aggregated data from all environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the new update, you can choose the project and default environment that VWO should use for decision-making. The added feature helps run experiments in cases where eliminating overlap of conversion data across environments is essential. The feature helps determine winning variations according to the exact user behavior within the chosen environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does this update help you?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The update helps you choose winning variations from environments exactly where you plan to deploy the change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine you\u2019re a product manager testing a new feature launch. How your employees use the product would differ from how customers use it. While you would like to beta test the features with employees and early adopters, you would still want to know the experiment winner based only on the data from the production environment. Since the cohort of users is different, the winning variation could be different for different environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, in a retail organization where employees of a certain cadre have a separate purchase portal with concessions and benefits, it is given that the user behavior would be different on the internal portal and the external portal, although the products and interface might be the same. In such cases, if experiments have to be done to test employee benefits, the internal environment can be chosen for winner declaration, whereas for customer-centric experiments, the public environment can be chosen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until earlier, you could only segment the report to view conversions for the environments but could not determine if the overall winning variation was the same as the winning variation specific to an environment. With the feature update, you can choose the environment for which you want the winner. VWO will declare a winner based only on the conversion data from this chosen environment and not cumulatively. So you can deploy the analytically determined best variation post your experiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature enhancement opens up a wide range of experimentation possibilities and helps you pick the best variation specific to testing environments. You also have a bird\u2019s eye view of conversion across other environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can you enable this option?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While setting up a campaign, by default, VWO calculates the winner using conversion data from all environments selected for the project. To use only one environment, you must enable the checkbox that says, \u201cCalculate the winner using data from a specific environment of a project.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This option can be enabled or disabled only while setting up the campaign and cannot be changed once the campaign has started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While conversion data and all other components of the reports remain the same, VWO will declare a winner based only on the conversion data of the selected project and environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can segment reports by environments, filter them, and analyze them by exporting them or pushing them to analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excited to try it out?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Winner calculation using data from specific environments is now available on VWO Testing – Server Side<\/a>. You can get a detailed, step-by-step overview<\/a> of how to enable this feature from this knowledge base article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
