In that scenario, UMA // data is uploaded to aggregate the test results, and this FieldTrial class // manages the state of each such experiment (state == which option was // pseudo-randomly selected). // // States are typically generated randomly, either based on a one time // randomization (which will yield the same results, in terms of selecting // the client for a field trial or not, for every run of the program on a // given machine), or by a session randomization (generated each time the // application starts up, but held constant during the duration of the // process). //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // Example: Suppose we have an experiment involving memory, such as determining // the impact of some pruning algorithm. // We assume that we already have a histogram of memory usage, such as: // UMA_HISTOGRAM_COUNTS("Memory.RendererTotal", count); // Somewhere in main thread initialization code, we'd probably define an // instance of a FieldTrial, with code such as: // // FieldTrials are reference counted, and persist automagically until // // process teardown, courtesy of their automatic registration in // // FieldTrialList. // // Note: This field trial will run in Chrome instances compiled through // // 8 July, 2015, and after that all instances will be in "StandardMem". // scoped_refptr<base::FieldTrial> trial( // base::FieldTrialList::FactoryGetFieldTrial( // "MemoryExperiment", 1000, "StandardMem", 2015, 7, 8, // base::FieldTrial::ONE_TIME_RANDOMIZED, NULL)); // // const int high_mem_group = // trial->AppendGroup("HighMem", 20); // 2% in HighMem group. // const int low_mem_group = // trial->AppendGroup("LowMem", 20); // 2% in LowMem group. // // Take action depending of which group we randomly land in. // if (trial->group() == high_mem_group) // SetPruningAlgorithm(kType1); // Sample setting of browser state. // else if (trial->group() == low_mem_group) // SetPruningAlgorithm(kType2); // Sample alternate setting. //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #ifndef BASE_METRICS_FIELD_TRIAL_H_ #define BASE_METRICS_FIELD_TRIAL_H_ #include <stddef.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <map> #include <memory> #include <set> #include <string> #include <vector> #include "base/atomicops.h" #include "base/base_export.h" #include "base/command_line.h" #include "base/feature_list.h" #include "base/files/file.h" #include "base/gtest_prod_util.h" #include "base/macros.h" #include "base/memory/ref_counted.h" #include "base/memory/shared_memory.h" #include "base/memory/shared_memory_handle.h" #include "base/metrics/persistent_memory_allocator.h" #include "base/observer_list_threadsafe.h" #include "base/pickle.h" #include "base/process/launch.h" #include "base/strings/string_piece.h" #include "base/synchronization/lock.h" #include "base/time/time.h" #include "build/build_config.h" namespace base { class FieldTrialList; class BASE_EXPORT FieldTrial : public RefCounted<FieldTrial> { public: typedef int Probability; // Probability type for being selected in a trial. // TODO(665129): Make private again after crash has been resolved. typedef SharedPersistentMemoryAllocator::Reference FieldTrialRef; // Specifies the persistence of the field trial group choice. enum RandomizationType { // One time randomized trials will persist the group choice between // restarts, which is recommended for most trials, especially those that // change user visible behavior.
