EvoTools

Getting Started

---

1) In this Github project, click the green Code button and choose Download ZIP. Save the zip file somewhere that you're not going to delete it by accident. Once downloaded, open the zip file and you should see a directory named evotools-main.

---

2) In Chrome, navigate to chrome://extensions/ and enable Developer mode in the top right corner of the extensions page.

---

3) Click the Load Unpacked button. Select the evotools-main directory from step 1.

---

4) You should now see the EvoTools extension enabled on the page. You may also want to pin the extension for easy access.

---

5) You're all set up! Navigate to a page that you know has an active experiment, click the extension icon, and validate that you are seeing data.

---

Note:

We use injectScript.js to get the evolv remotecontext and send it to evolvTool. We actually have a bridge between webpage and contentScript to transfer data. We also can transfer data between contentScript and background as internal communication to make a complete data flow.

Running locally

• npm run build will build the extension and place it in the dist directory. You can then load the extension from the dist directory in Chrome.
• npm run watch will watch for changes and rebuild the extension as you make changes.

Future Ideas

• Link each combinations to the experiment in the manager
• List audiences user has qualified for
• Select desired combination - would likely need to talk to the manager
• Replicate Resource Override's script injection/redirect functionality to eliminate the need for that extension.
  • Would allow us to be able to toggle environments
