    What is the main effect you are looking for and what data will you use to
    make these decisions?

We'll measure engagement with Pocket stories, as quantified by these metrics:

-Pocket recommendation click rate

-% of the test audience that clicked at least one recommendation during 4 weeks

-% of the test audience that disables Pocket recommendations

We will also monitor these Firefox metrics to make sure they do not decline for those users in the study:

-Search Count per User

-Ad Click Count per User

-Retention

-URI Count per User

-active days of use

For the Search Count and Retention metrics, specifically, we will also look at the results for the Regular and New & Resurrected user cohorts for all 4 weeks of the study.

Do you plan on surveying users at the end of the delivery? No. Strategy and Insights can help create surveys if needed

Why is this experiment green?

  • Delivery mechanism:
    • Initially QA raised a concern regarding a possible conflict between unenrollments from the 1st experiment and enrollments in the 2nd experiment. While the conflict is still possible, the concern is alleviated by the fact that clients will successfully enroll in the 2nd experiment after the 1st one is marked as completed.
  • Product specific:
    • No issues found.

Testing Summary:

Tested Platforms:

  • Windows 10
  • macOS 11.1
