# A/B Testing React Components

An updated version for the `reac-ab-test` library compatible with React 19.


Wrap components in [`<Variant />`](#variant-) and nest in [`<Experiment />`](#experiment-). A variant is chosen randomly and saved to local storage.

```js
<Experiment name="My Example">
  <Variant name="A">
    <div>Version A</div>
  </Variant>
  <Variant name="B">
    <div>Version B</div>
  </Variant>
</Experiment>
```

Report to your analytics provider using the [`emitter`](#emitter). Helpers are available for [Mixpanel](#mixpanelhelper) and [Segment.com](#segmenthelper).

```js
emitter.addPlayListener((experimentName, variantName) => {
  mixpanel.track('Start Experiment', {
    name: experimentName,
    variant: variantName,
  });
});
```

## Installation

`react-ab-test` is compatible with React `>=0.14.x`

```bash
yarn add @juanu/react-ab-test
```

## Usage

### Standalone Component

Try it [on JSFiddle](https://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/m14qvy7r/)


Using useExperiment Hook

```js
import React from 'react';
import { useExperiment, emitter } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// Hook usage pattern requires registration of experiments
emitter.defineVariants("My Example", ["A", "B"]);

const App = () => {
  const { selectVariant, emitWin } = useExperiment("My Example");
  const variant = selectVariant({
    A: <div>Section A</div>,
    B: <div>Section B</div>
  });

  return (
    <div>
      {variant}
      <button onClick={emitWin}>CTA</button>
    </div>
  );
};
```


Using Experiment Component

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, emitter } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

class App extends Component {
  experimentRef = React.createRef();

  onButtonClick(e) {
    this.experimentRef.current.win();
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Experiment ref={this.experimentRef} name="My Example">
          <Variant name="A">
            <div>Section A</div>
          </Variant>
          <Variant name="B">
            <div>Section B</div>
          </Variant>
        </Experiment>
        <button onClick={this.onButtonClick}>Emit a win</button>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

// Called when the experiment is displayed to the user.
emitter.addPlayListener(function(experimentName, variantName) {
  console.log(`Displaying experiment ${experimentName} variant ${variantName}`);
});

// Called when a 'win' is emitted, in this case by this.experimentRef.current.win()
emitter.addWinListener(function(experimentName, variantName) {
  console.log(
    `Variant ${variantName} of experiment ${experimentName} was clicked`
  );
});
```

### Coordinate Multiple Components

Try it [on JSFiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/pcutps9q/)

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, emitter } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// Define variants in advance.
emitter.defineVariants('My Example', ['A', 'B', 'C']);

function Component1 = () => {
  return (
    <Experiment name="My Example">
      <Variant name="A">
        <div>Section A</div>
      </Variant>
      <Variant name="B">
        <div>Section B</div>
      </Variant>
    </Experiment>
  );
};

const Component2 = () => {
  return (
    <Experiment name="My Example">
      <Variant name="A">
        <div>Subsection A</div>
      </Variant>
      <Variant name="B">
        <div>Subsection B</div>
      </Variant>
      <Variant name="C">
        <div>Subsection C</div>
      </Variant>
    </Experiment>
  );
};

class Component3 extends React.Component {
  onButtonClick(e) {
    emitter.emitWin('My Example');
  }
  render() {
    return <button onClick={this.onButtonClick}>Emit a win</button>;
  }
}

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      <Component1 />
      <Component2 />
      <Component3 />
    </div>
  );
};

// Called when the experiment is displayed to the user.
emitter.addPlayListener(function(experimentName, variantName) {
  console.log(`Displaying experiment ${experimentName} variant ${variantName}`);
});

// Called when a 'win' is emitted, in this case by emitter.emitWin('My Example')
emitter.addWinListener(function(experimentName, variantName) {
  console.log(
    `Variant ${variantName} of experiment ${experimentName} was clicked`
  );
});
```

### Weighting Variants

Try it [on JSFiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/e2q7xe4f/)

Use [emitter.defineVariants()](#emitterdefinevariantsexperimentname-variantnames--variantweights) to optionally define the ratios by which variants are chosen.

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, emitter } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// Define variants and weights in advance.
emitter.defineVariants('My Example', ['A', 'B', 'C'], [10, 40, 40]);

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      <Experiment name="My Example">
        <Variant name="A">
          <div>Section A</div>
        </Variant>
        <Variant name="B">
          <div>Section B</div>
        </Variant>
        <Variant name="C">
          <div>Section C</div>
        </Variant>
      </Experiment>
    </div>
  );
}
```

### Force variant calculation before rendering experiment
There are some scenarios where you may want the active variant of an experiment to be calculated before the experiment is rendered.
To do so, use [emitter.calculateActiveVariant()](#emittercalculateactivevariantexperimentname--useridentifier-defaultvariantname). Note that this method must
be called after [emitter.defineVariants()](#emitterdefinevariantsexperimentname-variantnames--variantweights)

```js
import { emitter } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// Define variants in advance
emitter.defineVariants('My Example', ['A', 'B', 'C']);
emitter.calculateActiveVariant('My Example', 'userId');

// Active variant will be defined even if the experiment is not rendered
const activeVariant = emitter.getActiveVariant('My Example');

```

### Debugging

The [debugger](#experimentdebugger) attaches a fixed-position panel to the bottom of the `<body>` element that displays mounted experiments and enables the user to change active variants in real-time.

The debugger is wrapped in a conditional `if(process.env.NODE_ENV === "production") {...}` and will not display on production builds using [envify](https://github.com/hughsk/envify).

<img src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/master/documentation-images/debugger-animated-2.gif" width="325" height="325" />

Try it [on JSFiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/vs9kkxLd/)

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, experimentDebugger } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

experimentDebugger.enable();

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      <Experiment name="My Example">
        <Variant name="A">
          <div>Section A</div>
        </Variant>
        <Variant name="B">
          <div>Section B</div>
        </Variant>
      </Experiment>
    </div>
  );
}
````

### Server Rendering

A [`<Experiment />`](#experiment-) with a `userIdentifier` property will choose a consistent [`<Variant />`](#variant-) suitable for server side rendering.

See [`./examples/isomorphic`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/tree/develop/examples/isomorphic) for a working example.

#### Example

The component in [`Component.jsx`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/blob/master/examples/isomorphic/Component.jsx):

```js
var React = require('react');
var Experiment = require('react-ab-test/lib/Experiment');
var Variant = require('react-ab-test/lib/Variant');

module.exports = React.createClass({
  propTypes: {
    userIdentifier: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  },
  render: function() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Experiment
          name="My Example"
          userIdentifier={this.props.userIdentifier}
        >
          <Variant name="A">
            <div>Section A</div>
          </Variant>
          <Variant name="B">
            <div>Section B</div>
          </Variant>
        </Experiment>
      </div>
    );
  },
});
```

We use a session ID for the `userIdentifier` property in this example, although a long-lived user ID would be preferable. See [`server.js`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/blob/master/examples/isomorphic/server.js):

```js
require('babel/register')({ only: /jsx/ });

var express = require('express');
var session = require('express-session');
var React = require('react');
var ReactDOMServer = require('react-dom/server');
var Component = require('./Component.jsx');
var abEmitter = require('@juanu/react-ab-test/lib/emitter');

var app = express();

app.set('view engine', 'ejs');

app.use(
  session({
    secret: 'keyboard cat',
    resave: false,
    saveUninitialized: true,
  })
);

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  var reactElement = React.createElement(Component, {
    userIdentifier: req.sessionID,
  });
  var reactString = ReactDOMServer.renderToString(reactElement);
  abEmitter.rewind();
  res.render('template', {
    sessionID: req.sessionID,
    reactOutput: reactString,
  });
});

app.use(express.static('www'));

app.listen(8080);
```

Remember to call `abEmitter.rewind()` to prevent memory leaks.

An [EJS](https://github.com/mde/ejs) template in [`template.ejs`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/blob/master/examples/isomorphic/views/template.ejs):

```html
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Isomorphic Rendering Example</title>
  </head>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    var SESSION_ID = <%- JSON.stringify(sessionID) %>;
  </script>
  <body>
    <div id="react-mount"><%- reactOutput %></div>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="bundle.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>
```

On the client in [`app.jsx`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/blob/master/examples/isomorphic/www/app.jsx):

```js
var React = require('react');
var ReactDOM = require('react-dom');
var Component = require('../Component.jsx');

var container = document.getElementById('react-mount');

ReactDOM.render(<Component userIdentifier={SESSION_ID} />, container);
```

### With Babel

Code from [`./src`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/tree/master/src) is written in [JSX](https://facebook.github.io/jsx/) and transpiled into [`./lib`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/tree/master/lib) using [Babel](https://babeljs.io/). If your project uses Babel you may want to include files from [`./src`](https://github.com/pushtell/react-ab-test/tree/master/src) directly.

Sends events to [Mixpanel](https://mixpanel.com). Requires `window.mixpanel` to be set using [Mixpanel's embed snippet](https://mixpanel.com/help/reference/javascript).

#### Usage

When the [`<Experiment />`](#experiment-) is mounted, the helper sends an `Experiment Play` event using [`mixpanel.track(...)`](https://mixpanel.com/help/reference/javascript-full-api-reference#mixpanel.track) with `Experiment` and `Variant` properties.

When a [win is emitted](#emitteremitwinexperimentname) the helper sends an `Experiment Win` event using [`mixpanel.track(...)`](https://mixpanel.com/help/reference/javascript-full-api-reference#mixpanel.track) with `Experiment` and `Variant` properties.

Try it [on JSFiddle](https://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/hwtnzm35/)

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, mixpanelHelper } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// window.mixpanel has been set by Mixpanel's embed snippet.
mixpanelHelper.enable();

class App extends React.Component {

  experimentRef = React.createRef();

  onButtonClick(e) {
    this.experimentRef.current.win();
    // mixpanelHelper sends the 'Experiment Win' event, equivalent to:
    // mixpanel.track('Experiment Win', {Experiment: "My Example", Variant: "A"})
  }
  componentWillMount() {
    // mixpanelHelper sends the 'Experiment Play' event, equivalent to:
    // mixpanel.track('Experiment Play', {Experiment: "My Example", Variant: "A"})
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Experiment ref={this.experimentRef} name="My Example">
          <Variant name="A">
            <div>Section A</div>
          </Variant>
          <Variant name="B">
            <div>Section B</div>
          </Variant>
        </Experiment>
        <button onClick={this.onButtonClick}>Emit a win</button>
      </div>
    );
  }
}
```

#### `mixpanelHelper.enable()`

Add listeners to `win` and `play` events and report results to Mixpanel.

* **Return Type:** No return value

#### `mixpanelHelper.disable()`

Remove `win` and `play` listeners and stop reporting results to Mixpanel.

* **Return Type:** No return value

### `segmentHelper`

Sends events to [Segment](https://segment.com). Requires `window.analytics` to be set using [Segment's embed snippet](https://segment.com/docs/libraries/analytics.js/quickstart/#step-1-copy-the-snippet).

#### Usage

When the [`<Experiment />`](#experiment-) is mounted, the helper sends an `Experiment Viewed` event using [`segment.track(...)`](https://segment.com/docs/libraries/analytics.js/#track) with `experimentName` and `variationName` properties.

When a [win is emitted](#emitteremitwinexperimentname) the helper sends an `Experiment Won` event using [`segment.track(...)`](https://segment.com/docs/libraries/analytics.js/#track) with `experimentName` and `variationName` properties.

Try it [on JSFiddle](https://jsfiddle.net/pushtell/ae1jeo2k/)

```js
import React from 'react';
import { Experiment, Variant, segmentHelper } from '@juanu/react-ab-test';

// window.analytics has been set by Segment's embed snippet.
segmentHelper.enable();

class App extends React.Component {
  experimentRef = React.createRef();

  onButtonClick(e) {
    this.experimentRef.current.win();
    // segmentHelper sends the 'Experiment Won' event, equivalent to:
    // segment.track('Experiment Won', {experimentName: "My Example", variationName: "A"})
  }
  componentWillMount() {
    // segmentHelper sends the 'Experiment Viewed' event, equivalent to:
    // segment.track('Experiment Viewed, {experimentName: "My Example", variationName: "A"})
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Experiment ref={this.experimentRef} name="My Example">
          <Variant name="A">
            <div>Section A</div>
          </Variant>
          <Variant name="B">
            <div>Section B</div>
          </Variant>
        </Experiment>
        <button onClick={this.onButtonClick}>Emit a win</button>
      </div>
    );
  }
}
```

#### `segmentHelper.enable()`

Add listeners to `win` and `play` events and report results to Segment.

* **Return Type:** No return value

#### `segmentHelper.disable()`

Remove `win` and `play` listeners and stop reporting results to Segment.

* **Return Type:** No return value
