test(evaluators): add nested $ref resolution scenarios

[aepfli]

Summary

Adds @evaluator-refs and @evaluator-ref-edge-cases tagged scenarios to targeting.feature covering recursive $ref resolution from flagd#1875.

New Tags

• @evaluator-refs — added to the existing basic evaluator reuse scenario (previously untagged)
• @evaluator-ref-edge-cases — for the new nested resolution scenario

Changes

Existing scenario tagged

The existing "Evaluator reuse" scenario now has @evaluator-refs so SDK implementations can explicitly opt in.

New: Nested $ref resolution (nested-ref-targeted-flag)

A new is_privileged evaluator in evaluator-refs.json references is_ballmer via $ref:

"is_privileged": {
  "or": [
    {"$ref": "is_ballmer"},
    {"==": ["admin", {"var": ["role"]}]}
  ]
}

The nested-ref-targeted-flag uses $ref: is_privileged, requiring two levels of resolution. Tests:

context	expected
email = ballmer@macrosoft.com	privileged (via nested is_ballmer)
role = admin	privileged (via direct admin check)
email = other@example.com	standard (neither condition met)

Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request expands the test suite for flag evaluation by introducing scenarios that validate nested $ref resolution within evaluators. It ensures that the system correctly handles complex referencing patterns, improving the robustness of feature flag targeting logic and addressing a reported bug related to recursive $ref usage.

Highlights

• New Nested $ref Resolution Scenarios: Added new tagged scenarios (@evaluator-refs, @evaluator-ref-edge-cases) to targeting.feature to cover recursive $ref resolution, addressing flagd#1875.
• New is_privileged Evaluator: Introduced a new is_privileged evaluator in evaluator-refs.json that demonstrates two levels of $ref resolution by referencing is_ballmer.
• Existing Scenario Tagged: The existing "Evaluator reuse" scenario in targeting.feature was tagged with @evaluator-refs for explicit SDK opt-in.

Changelog

• flags/evaluator-refs.json
  • Added a new flag nested-ref-targeted-flag to test multi-level $ref resolution.
  • Introduced an is_privileged evaluator that uses $ref to another evaluator (is_ballmer) and an additional condition.
• gherkin/targeting.feature
  • Applied the @evaluator-refs tag to the existing 'Evaluator reuse' scenario.
  • Added a new scenario 'Nested evaluator ref resolution' tagged with @evaluator-refs and @evaluator-ref-edge-cases to test the new nested $ref logic.

Code Review

This pull request successfully introduces nested $ref resolution scenarios, addressing the issue described in flagd#1875. The evaluator-refs.json file correctly defines the new nested-ref-targeted-flag and the is_privileged evaluator, which leverages a nested $ref to is_ballmer. The targeting.feature file includes a new scenario, "Nested evaluator ref resolution," with comprehensive examples that validate the expected behavior for different context inputs. The addition of @evaluator-refs and @evaluator-ref-edge-cases tags also improves test organization. Overall, the changes are well-implemented and provide good test coverage for the new functionality.
