Does Statsig's Local Mode Cause Flaky Test Results by Randomly Returning True/False?
Date of slack thread: 7/2/24
Anonymous: Does statsig on local mode, without setting an override, randomly return true and false? We’re investigating a source of flakiness in our tests and trying to tie this down.
Tore (Statsig): It shouldn’t - with no overrides, gates would return false, configs/experiments would return empty, so the get method would be the only way for defaults to be assigned. Are you observing this in a particular sdk?
Anonymous: This is the java sdk but I think if the configs should be returning empty, the discrepancy/flakiness should be elsewhere.

We evaluated Optimizely, LaunchDarkly, Split, and Eppo, but ultimately selected Statsig due to its comprehensive end-to-end integration. We wanted a complete solution rather than a partial one, including everything from the stats engine to data ingestion.
