assistance with site testing

Description

Web developers occasionally can implement changes to design to see whether they result in better users engagement. Please advise how this is available at WMF wikis. For example, I can provide users with other skin/theme (Vector, Timeless, etc) and see whether this correlates with the users staying longer. Or I can provide a modified layout of sidebar and see whether it results in users clicking certain links more often than in the default configuration. I would appreciate assistance in this as it would help with tech support for a WMF wiki.

Interesting page. What do I do with it?

Suppose I'd like to know whether users like red colored headings or blue colored headings, for example; it's a feature that can be modified by editing global CSS on the wiki. How do I proceed from that to an A/B testing scenario?

Hi @Gryllida. This does not sound like something is wrong in the code base (a so-called "software bug"), but instead like a support request (how to change settings, questions how to do something, etc.).
