Method Detail

computeHash

public long computeHash(int seed,
                        Set<String> hashAttributes,
                        AttributesMap attributes)

generates a hash code used to assign identity to treatment

Parameters:

seed - a seed value to randomize the resulting hash from experiment to experiment for the same identity

hashAttributes - a set of attributes that should be used to compute the hash code

attributes - a map of attribute values

computeAttributes

public abstract AttributesMap computeAttributes()

generates a list of attributes that describe this identity for filtering

identity

getSupportedAttributes

public static <T extends Identity> Set<String> getSupportedAttributes(Class<T> clazz)

Get a list of possible attribute values that can be returned by this identity
