How can I get the current Test with Split AB Testing

Question

I started a test with the Split AB Testing gem, which renders two different templates like

@test = ab_test("test", "template_1", "template_2")

At this point @test gives me the desired template name. But I don't want to pass this parameter to the place I need it.

Is there a possibility to directly get the current test?

Answer 1

Under the Experiment Configuration heading in the documentation , it says you can do something like this:

<% ab_test("my_first_experiment") do |alternative, meta| %>
  <%= alternative %>
  <small><%= meta['text'] %></small>
<% end %>

You could wrap that in an if admin or something so only you see it.

Answer 2

I found out that the helper method

active_experiments()

provides all active experiments for the current user, which is exactly what I need. Thanks for your efforts.
