Control Groups

Control Groups is an experimental-design construct denoting the subset of units in a study, A/B test, or containerized system deployment that is withheld from the experimental intervention and instead exposed to baseline or standard conditions so that their outcomes provide a reference against which the causal effects of the treatment or variant on other groups can be assessed.
