pyrosper 0.1.1.post0

A continuously improving, experimentation framework.

\\//, pyrosper (pronounced "prosper")

A continuously improving, experimentation framework. Now in python, ported from the Typescript counterpart.

Installation

TBD

Why

pyrosper provides a means of:

• injecting intelligently selected experimental code that is shorted lived
• using multi armed bandit machine learning to selected which experimental code is injected
• prevents code churn where long-lived code belongs

The non-pyrosper way:

• Uses feature flagging
• Favors code churn, with highly fractured experimentation
• Constantly effects test coverage
• Provides a very blurry understanding of the code base when experimenting

The pyrosper way:

• Use experiments rather than Features Flags
  • Picture one master switch, rather than a many small switches
  • Code for each variant lives close together, within an experiment
• Favors short-lived experimental code, that accentuates long-lived code
  • Once understandings from a variant is known, then it can be moved from short-lived (experiment) to long-lived (source)
• Meant to churn as little as possible.
• Provides a very clear understanding of the code base when experimenting

Examples
