Experimental_Abtest{}WC 1.0

This class provides an interface to the Explat A/B tests.

Usage:

$anon_id = isset( $_COOKIE['tk_ai'] ) ? sanitize_text_field( wp_unslash( $_COOKIE['tk_ai'] ) ) : ''; $allow_tracking = 'yes' === get_option( 'woocommerce_allow_tracking' ); $abtest = new \WooCommerce\Admin\Experimental_Abtest(

$anon_id,
'woocommerce',
$allow_tracking

);

OR use the helper function:

WooCommerce\Admin\Experimental_Abtest::in_treatment('experiment_name');

$isTreatment = $abtest->get_variation('your-experiment-name') === 'treatment';
