Janus

License2 Python Version Code style: black

Warning We're making a major breaking change in the project to use the bayesian-testing library for better experiment management, and a full stack application will be developed to build a website for Janus. Please, consider using the distributed package in pypi, which comes from the evolve-janus-backend branch.

Janus is an A/B Test Engine to be used in a variety use cases, especially to measure conversion, ticket and ARPU difference between variants, i.e, typical metrics for tests in marketplaces. The engine name is an analogy to Janus, the god of changes and transitions.

This library came as an ideia of separate the statistical calculations in A/B Tests from other code that is typically used to manage tests and execute queries over the company's database, and hence usually carry proprietary code and even business logic, which should not be open sourced. There was the bud to build this library and get it open sourced.

Checkout the streamlit app from this repo.

Installation

Open a terminal, clone this repository into your machine and stay into the project directory.

Using a virtual environment is a good practice, but it is optional. If you enjoy it, go ahead and create a virtual environment by typing:

python3 -m venv venv -r requirements.txt

Once it is created, you must now activate the environment by using:

source venv/bin/activate

Now, you can install our lib (if you are not using virtual env, go straight to this command):

make install

And that's it! Now, inside our environment, we can import the janus lib inside our scripts with plain import janus etc. Try to test using the same code on experiment_example.ipynb notebook here or in a plain terminal.

Using as an Application

You can use janus as a streamlit product. Just run make run and an streamlit app will launch.
