Description

In T397217: Implement a group by toggle for the RecentChanges/Watchlist/RelatedChanges special pages we implemented a grouping toggle on the RecentChages/RelatedChanges/Watchlist pages that sits behind a feature flag titled toggle.

After we have merged that in and tested it we will need to add back the experimentation code that was added in the POC patch.
We'll also need to set up the experiment in XLab dashboard.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • All metrics defined in instrumentation spec are successfully being sent
  • Experimentation setup and configured in XLab interface

Ok, @Scardenasmolinar @jsn.sherman

this can now be tested on beta wiki.

In the dev console you override enrollment:

mw.xLab.overrideExperimentGroup( 'fy24-25-we-1-7-rc-grouping-toggle', 'toggle-shown' );

Once you've done that you should see the toggle and events being sent.

Looks good on enwiki beta, using

mw.xLab.overrideExperimentGroup( 'fy24-25-we-1-7-rc-grouping-toggle', 'toggle-shown' );

to enable, and the url parameter to force back off:
