Testing Period
The specific timeframe during which an experiment is actively running.
The testing period is the duration for which an A/B test collects data, from the start date to the end date. Determining the right testing period involves considering required sample size, traffic volume, and ensuring enough time (often full weeks) passes to account for natural fluctuations and minimize effects like novelty or regression to the mean. Also see Test Duration.
