Statistical Power

The probability that a test will correctly detect a real effect.

Power (usually aimed for 80% or higher) is the probability that your A/B test will find a statistically significant difference between variations if a real difference of a certain size (the MDE) actually exists. Low power increases the risk of Type II errors (false negatives) – missing a real winner. Power depends on sample size, baseline conversion rate, and MDE.
