Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing A/B testing of service-level metrics. During operation, the system obtains service-level metrics for service calls made during an A/B test, wherein the service-level metrics are aggregated by user identifiers of multiple users. Next, the system matches the service-level metrics to treatment assignments of the users to a treatment group and a control group in the A/B test. The system then applies the A/B test to a first grouping of the service-level metrics for the treatment group and a second grouping of the service-level metrics for the control group. Finally, the system outputs a result of the A/B test for use in assessing an effect of a treatment variant in the A/B test on the service-level metrics.
