bookDesigning A/B Tests with Python

A/B testing is a core tool for growth hackers, allowing you to compare two versions of a product or experience—such as a landing page, email subject line, or signup process—to see which performs better. By randomly assigning users to either variant A or variant B and measuring their responses, you can make data-driven decisions that optimize growth strategies. A/B tests are essential for validating hypotheses and minimizing risk before rolling out changes to your user base.

import numpy as np # Simulate user responses for A/B test np.random.seed(42) # For reproducibility n_users = 1000 conversion_rate_A = 0.12 # 12% for variant A conversion_rate_B = 0.16 # 16% for variant B # Simulate conversions: 1 = converted, 0 = did not convert responses_A = np.random.binomial(1, conversion_rate_A, n_users) responses_B = np.random.binomial(1, conversion_rate_B, n_users) # Count conversions conversions_A = responses_A.sum() conversions_B = responses_B.sum() print(f"Variant A: {conversions_A} conversions out of {n_users} users") print(f"Variant B: {conversions_B} conversions out of {n_users} users")

After simulating user responses, you interpret the results by calculating the conversion rate for each variant. The conversion rate is simply the number of users who performed the desired action (such as signing up or making a purchase) divided by the total number of users exposed to that variant. By comparing these rates, you can determine which variant is more effective. A higher conversion rate in one group suggests that the changes made in that variant positively influenced user behavior, guiding your decision on which version to implement more broadly.
