test(parity): threshold floors ratchet from the measured 2026-08-17 baseline (#8271) - #8304
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe parity threshold configuration raises four category floors to 100%, adds documented exceptions, and sets measured minimums for three legacy categories. A changelog entry records the baseline, ratcheting rules, provenance, and gate verification. ChangesParity threshold floors
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The threshold policy change is otherwise mergeable, but the release note should identify the changed configuration file and accurately report the legacy baselines so maintainers are not misled about the shipped behavior.

Correct the legacy floor values and the opening sentence.
test-parity/threshold.json configures legacy/gap at 98.5%, legacy/issue at 81.0%, and legacy/other at 87.5%. Lines 6-7 instead report 98.6%, 81.2%, and 87.8%.
Lines 3-5 are also incomplete. State that the prior 100% default applied to these identified categories before their explicit exception floors were added.
Based on learnings, changelog fragments must accurately describe the shipped behavior as one coherent release-note entry.

Merging. JSON + changelog only, no code. I checked the direction before believing the title, because "ratchet" and "add 18 zero floors" can describe either a tightening or a capitulation. Numerically: 4 raised, 0 lowered, 21 added. The 18 new 0% floors are not a weakening in effect — those categories previously fell under The part that makes this a real ratchet rather than a re-baseline is the other direction. Four stale 0% floors that measured 100% on the same report —
That is the same failure mode as a skip-list entry nobody revisits, and catching it in the same pass that adds new exemptions is what keeps the mechanism honest. The three legacy buckets flooring at their measured rates (gap 98.5 / issue 81.0 / other 87.5) are up-only, so further slide goes red while the debt burns down. Companion to #8273, which did the same thing for One fix pushed: the changelog fragment was named |

Include the affected configuration path in this changeset.
The entry does not name test-parity/threshold.json, which defines the ratcheted floors. Add the path so readers can trace the release note to the changed policy. Keep the gate validation statement.
Based on learnings, changelog fragments should include affected file paths and validation notes.

Final data piece of the #8271 ratchet (companion to #8273): the per-category threshold gate ran for the first time in CI via
parity-aggregate(run 31988840780 — the merge machinery worked, producing the exact whole-suite report) and failed on 21 categories whose 100% floors predate the six-week dark period.What:
known_failures.jsonentry; the floor returns to 100 in the same PR that fixes the test.parity/http,parity/http2,parity/https,parity/sqlite) are raised to 100 — a 0-floor that outlives its gap is a permanent suppression of that category's next regression.Verified:
parity_threshold_gate.py --checkexits green against the real merged 8-shard report.With this + #8291 (lint unbreak, in flight), the sharded parity gate in #8244 goes end-to-end green on today's
mainexcept for genuinely new regressions — which is the whole point.Summary by CodeRabbit
