In XP, switchback experiments can have one or more treatments and the engine cycles through them, selecting one treatment for all requests in every time interval. -- **Randomized Switchback Experiments** - This is a hybrid between the A/B experiments and Switchbacks. These experiments are Switchbacks by nature (they have a time interval). In addition, they can have a traffic allocation on each of the treatments. Thus, at every new interval, the selection of the treatment is not cyclical, but randomized. In the default mode, all requests in a given time interval will still receive the same treatment. However, it is also possible to vary this. +- **Randomized Switchback Experiments** - This is a hybrid between the A/B experiments and Switchbacks.
