Podsumowanie	A crossover A/B test is an experimental design in which the same participants or units are exposed to both treatment A and treatment B in sequence, with each serving as their own control. By eliminating between-subject variability, the design achieves higher statistical power than a standard parallel A/B test at the same sample size, but it requires careful handling of carryover effects and time-period confounds.	An Adaptive A/B test is an experimental design that dynamically reallocates traffic or participants toward better-performing variants during the experiment itself, rather than holding allocations fixed until the end. Drawing on multi-armed bandit algorithms such as Thompson Sampling or Upper Confidence Bound (UCB), it balances the exploration of uncertain variants with the exploitation of those already showing superior performance, typically yielding higher aggregate outcomes while still producing valid inferential conclusions.
