* There's an add-on that you can use for overriding the local switchboard configuration: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/switchboard-experiments/ Addon Download] [https://github.com/pocmo/Addon-Switchboard-Experiments Source code]. This works great for switching experiments on/off - but doesn't let you configure additional metadata if required by the experiment. | * There's an add-on that you can use for overriding the local switchboard configuration: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/switchboard-experiments/ Addon Download] [https://github.com/pocmo/Addon-Switchboard-Experiments Source code].

== Experiment configuration == | |||
* '''Name''': A descriptive name for the experiment. This name is used in JSON that is being sent by the server and stored by the client. Examples are: ''bookmark-history-menu'', ''malware-download-protection'', ''promote-add-to-homescreen'' | |||
* '''Description''': A more detailed description what this experiment is about. In the best case this contains a bug number for context. Currently we send this data to the clients too (Don't make it too big). | |||
* '''Buckets''': Every user is in one of 100 buckets (0-99). For every experiment you can set up a min and max value (0 <= min <= max <= 100). The bounds are [min, max). An experiment set to buckets min=0, max=50 means that users in buckets 0-49 will have it enabled. There is no check for out of bounds values, so "disabled" experiments can have min/max buckets keys that are either out of bounds or have min == max. A disabled experiment is usually set to min=0, max=0. | |||
* '''Filters''' - In addition to buckets additional filters can be used to limit the experiments to a subset of users. | |||
* appId (regex): The Android app ID (e.g. org.mozilla.fennec, org.mozilla.firefox_beta, org.mozilla.firefox) | |||
* version (regex): The Firefox app version number (e.g. 47.0a1', 46.0) | |||
* lang (regex): Language, pulled from the default locale (e.g. eng) | |||
* country (regex): Country, pulled from the default locale (e.g. USA) | |||
* device (regex): Android device name | |||
* manufacturer (regex): Android device manufacturer | |||
