This PR

Update fractional bucketing in openfeature-flagd-core to use canonical CBOR encoding and unsigned 32-bit MurmurHash3 per the latest flagd specification.

  • Implement number normalization for float/int consistency per specification

  • Support non-string targeting keys and null bucketing keys returning None

  • Use [flagKey, targetingKey] CBOR array for shorthand bucketing syntax

  • Update flagd-testbed submodule to v3.10.1 and select @fractional-v3 tests

  • Add unit tests for null handling, zero equivalence, float equivalence, and ordering

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The fractional operator now uses canonical CBOR hashing and supports non-string bucket keys. Validation covers numeric normalization, invalid weights, and encoding failures. Provider defaults, exports, e2e filters, context handling, event assertions, and test expectations were updated.

Changes

Fractional evaluation and provider alignment

Layer / File(s) Summary
Canonical fractional evaluation
tools/openfeature-flagd-core/pyproject.toml, tools/openfeature-flagd-core/src/openfeature/contrib/tools/flagd/core/targeting/custom_ops.py
The fractional operator normalizes bucket keys, encodes them as canonical CBOR, validates targeting keys and weights, and handles encoding failures.
Fractional behavior validation
tools/openfeature-flagd-core/tests/test_targeting.py
Tests cover non-string keys, numeric normalization, dictionary ordering, invalid weights, and CBOR encoding failures.
Provider and test alignment
providers/openfeature-provider-flagd/src/openfeature/contrib/provider/flagd/resolvers/process/custom_ops.py, providers/openfeature-provider-flagd/tests/*, providers/openfeature-provider-flagd/openfeature/test-harness
The provider re-exports normalize_numbers. Fractional expectations, e2e filters, context handling, event assertions, and the test harness revision are updated.
Layer / File(s) Summary
Retry default adjustments
providers/openfeature-provider-flagd/src/openfeature/contrib/provider/flagd/config.py
The default retry backoff maximum changes to 5000 milliseconds. The default retry grace period changes to 10 seconds.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6d5a0

Fractional bucketing is updated for canonical CBOR hashing and broader key support, but end-to-end coverage can miss delayed events and can alter string values containing literal backslashes. Address these test-harness issues before relying on the affected scenarios.

Resolve test failures and incompatibilities introduced by bumping the flagd-testbed to v3.10.1, along with linting and coverage fixes:

- Fix ruff SIM102 in tools/openfeature-flagd-core custom_ops.py

- Add test for CBOR serialization failure to ensure 100% patch coverage

- Update unit test expected values in openfeature-provider-flagd for CBOR bucketing

- Configure file and RPC e2e test filters for fractional v2/v3 tags

Preserve literal backslashes in update_context.

For String values, update_context replaces every \\ pair before storing the value in evaluation_context.attributes. This changes inputs that contain two literal backslashes. The pinned test data uses \u... sequences and does not define \\ as an encoding. Remove this normalization or decode only an explicit test-data encoding, and add a literal-backslash case.

Wait before asserting that the event did not run.

event_handles is populated asynchronously, but this check runs only once. A late event_type event can therefore make the step pass incorrectly. Reuse assert_handlers with a bounded wait, then assert that no matching handle exists.

Proposed fix
-    found = any(h["type"] == event_type for h in event_handles)
+    handles = assert_handlers(event_handles, event_type, max_wait=2)
+    found = any(h["type"] == event_type for h in handles)
