Analyzing A/B Test Results

Statistical Analysis Table

Once your A/B test has run and enough data has been collected, the Statistical Analysis table provides a summary of how each variant performed–so you can confidently interpret the results.

Users ExposedNumber of users assigned to each variant during the test.
Goal MetricsThe average value of your chosen Goal Metric (e.g. Playtime per User) across the duration of your experiment.
Best OddsThe probability that the variant is the best performer for the selected variant.
Gain Over ControlEstimated difference between the variant and the control, expressed as a percentage range.
DistributionThe full distribution of your chosen Goal Metrics (e.g. Playtime per User) across the duration of your experiment.
Winner LabelThe variant with the highest probability of being the best performer is labeled “Winner”.

Statistical Methods Used

To make sure A/B test results are reliable, we use two well-established statistical methods.

Bayesian InferenceHelps estimate which variant is likely to be the best, even when the sample sizes are small. It is especially useful when testing with early or limited data.
BootstrappingUsed with a large number of users. It allows us to simulate many possible outcomes from the data to understand how confident we can be in the results.

Both methods help calculate:

  • Best Odds: How likely each variant is to be the best (Best Odds)
  • Gain over Control: The expected gain over the control group

Metrics Data

You can further analyze your A/B test results with a time series chart that visualizes how the selected Goal Metric (e.g. Playtime per User) evolved for each variant over the duration of the test.

  • X-Axis: Date
  • Y-Axis: Selected metric value (e.g. playtime, ARPPU)
  • Lines: Each test variant is plotted as a separate colored line (e.g., blue for control, yellow for Variant 1)

Use this to:

  • Observe trends over time for your A/B test groups
  • Check for early differences between groups
  • Spot any anomalies or inconsistencies in daily performance

Results Table

You can also look at an extended list of metrics calculated during the A/B test, including:

  • Engagement: Retention (D1, D3, D7, etc.), playtime, sessions
  • Advertising: Ad revenue, impressions, clicks, views
  • Revenue: IAP, ARPU, ARPPU
  • Conversion: Conversion rate, PUR
  • Custom: Customize your results tab with multiple metrics
