Mutually exclusive layer allocation: Paused experiments release their range · case 02
Pausing an experiment pours its users into an overlapping experiment listed later.
Case contract
bucket = int(md5(layer_salt + ":" + user) hex, 16) % 1000. experiments is an ordered list of {name, start, end, paused?} with start/end in percent (one decimal) converted to permille by round(x * 10); ranges are half-open [start, end). The first listed range containing the bucket decides: a paused experiment reserves its range (user gets None). Return [bucket, name or None].
Why this case matters
Layers keep concurrent experiments from overlapping on the same users.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| paused range reserves its users | [988, "y"] | [988, null] | Failed |
