Improve glossary term definition of fractional evaluation #126

Closed beeme1mr closed 1 year ago

beeme1mr commented 1 year ago

The current definition mentions that fractional evaluations are random but this is not correct. In many tools, the targeting key is used to determine what variation to use based on a configured percentage. This is why targeting keys are required for many providers.

We could say random but deterministic based on targetingKey, or something that conveys that.
