“The VWO-Contentful Integration was the biggest feature that appealed to us. We previously used engineering resources to launch every server-side A/B test. Given our team's large ambitions and limited engineering resources, we could only launch ~1 test every 14-20 days. With the VWO-Contentful integration, we removed the engineering dependency for setting up and launching front-end experiments.”Nijanth VelmanikandanGrowth Product Manager at Human Interest

Frequently Asked Questions
Server-side testing is a method of A/B testing wherein the variations of a particular test are rendered directly from the server & then deliberately sent to the visitors’ device.
A feature is an addition or modification to the system that adds new functionality. A product’s features define it and set it apart from other similar products. From a business perspective, a feature should have characteristics that make it practical, easy to use, and efficient.
A feature flag is a software development approach that allows for the remote activation or deactivation of functionality without the need for code deployment. With feature flags, it is possible to introduce new features at runtime without additional code.
A feature flag can regulate access, for instance, if new features are made accessible to internal users for testing and feedback. The functionality is only visible to employees connected to the program using a corporate email address. Feature flags enable you to classify risk and manage components. By separating deployment from release, feature flags enable you to control a feature’s entire lifespan and opt for secure testing in production mode.
Feature testing is the procedure that is performed when a new feature is introduced to the application, or an existing feature is modified. It can also be defined as the process used to test several iterations of the feature to find the most successful version that offers the greatest user experience.
VWO SDKs are directly integrated with your servers and make no external calls to return variations to be assigned to users. The entire decision time is less than 50ms and will have no noticeable impact on your page loads.
