Tested in rails 2.3.2

./script/plugin install git://github.com/paulmars/seven_minute_abs.git

ruby script/generate ab_migration rake db:migrate
Include Code
add these lines to these files
module ApplicationHelper include AbViewHelper end
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base include SevenMinuteAbs before_filter :ab_click_count end
Use it!
Test if orange or blue gets more clicks
"linkcolor" -> name of your test 2 -> number of different versions you have (else statement)
make sure to include 'test.stub' in any urls, otherwise clicks won't be counted!
<% ab_test("linkcolor", 2) do |test,version|%> <% if version == 0 %> <%= link_to "Blue version", url_for(:ab => test.stub), {:style => "color:blue"} %> <% elsif version == 1 %> <%= link_to "Orange version", url_for(:ab => test.stub), {:style => "color:orange"} %> <% end %> <% end %>
See Stats
A quick way to see your stats. You want the highest % possible to be your main choice!
<% Ab.find(:all).each do |ab| %>
