Make A/B test settings environment-specific #59

Closed suzannehamilton closed 7 years ago

suzannehamilton commented 7 years ago

This fixes issues like this:

  1. Visit an A/B test page on Integration.
  2. Set the bucket to B. Integration has no CDN and no A/B cookies, this just sets the header that would be sent with the request.
  3. Visit the A/B page in on Production.
  4. If this happens to place you in the B bucket, everything is consistent, and the extension works as expected. But if you are placed in the A bucket, your A/B cookie will say 'A' but the extension will show 'B'.

Marked as DO NOT MERGE because it depends on on #58. If that gets merged, I'll rebase and update the merge base for this PR.
