- 11. $experiment = array( ‘name’ -> ‘DemoOnline2011’, 'initial_rollout' => '0', 'branches' => array( 'Enhanced' => 0.5, // can specify multiple weighted branches ) ); // Helper function for readability function user_should_see_test_feature( $uid = NULL ) { return get_branch_for_customer( $uid, $experiment ) ) == 'Enhanced'; // assigns customer if first time called } // The experiment branch if( user_should_see_test_feature( $uid ) ) { // behavior for experiment } else { // control behavior } 11
