Description

Target issue

closes #14830

Implementation Details

Fido2MetricsService.getUserAdoptionMetrics reported three figures that did not mean what their
names said:

  • adoptionRate fell as adoption succeeded. It was newUsers / uniqueUsers, where uniqueUsers
    counted only users active in the query window. Once everyone had enrolled and was only signing in,
    newUsers tended to zero and the rate reported near-zero adoption exactly when adoption was
    complete.
  • newUsers did not mean first registration. The filter was REGISTRATION + SUCCESS inside the
    window, with no check for prior registrations — an existing user enrolling a second passkey counted
    as new, and the number changed meaning with the date picker.
  • returningUsers was derived by subtraction (uniqueUsers - newUsers), so a user who both
    registered and authenticated in the same window was counted only as new, never as returning.

The fix. getUserAdoptionMetrics now issues a second, targeted query against the metrics store —
getUsersRegisteredBefore(startTime) — for users whose registration already succeeded before the
window began ("prior adopters"). Everything downstream is derived from that set directly rather than
from window-only activity:

  • newUsers = registrations succeeding in the window, minus prior adopters — first-ever success only.
  • returningUsers = users active this window who are already prior adopters — computed directly, not
    by subtracting newUsers from uniqueUsers.
  • adoptionRate = newUsers / (priorAdopters + newUsers) — new users against the cumulative
    population of everyone who has ever registered as of endTime, so it tracks growth instead of
    falling toward zero as sign-in-only activity comes to dominate. When nobody has ever registered, the
    rate is null rather than a misleading 0.0.

This is intentionally the self-contained option: no new dependency on a directory-wide user count, and
no response-shape drop of adoptionRate — see the issue's "needs a product decision" note for the two
alternatives considered. It is bounded by the metrics retention policy: a user whose only prior
registration entry has already been cleaned up by cleanupOldData is reported as new again. That
tradeoff is documented on getUsersRegisteredBefore's Javadoc.

Unrelated bug found while implementing this, filed separately as #14859: Fido2AnalyticsService. generateExecutiveSummary recomputes its own adoption rate from totalUniqueUsers/newUsers instead
of using this method's adoptionRate, and casts those Integer values to Long, throwing
ClassCastException. Not touched here — it's a different file with its own review, and the class is
currently unwired from any controller.


Test and Document the changes

  • Static code analysis has been run locally and issues have been fixed
  • Relevant unit and integration tests have been added/updated
  • Relevant documentation has been updated if any (i.e. user guides, installation and configuration guides, technical design docs etc)

TestsFido2MetricsServiceTest, 5 added (34 total in the file, all green):

  • a user who registered before the window and only signs in during it is returning, not new
  • a user with no prior registration is new the first time they register
  • enrolling a second passkey does not make an already-adopted user look new again
  • adoptionRate is against cumulative adopters, not window activity
  • adoptionRate is null, not 0.0, when nobody has ever registered

Please check the below before submitting your PR. The PR will not be merged if there are no commits that start with docs: to indicate documentation changes or if the below checklist is not selected.

  • I confirm that there is no impact on the docs due to the code changes in this PR.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved FIDO2 adoption metrics by accurately distinguishing new users from returning users.
    • Adoption rates now account for users who registered before the selected reporting period.
    • Adoption rates correctly return no value when there are no registered users.
    • Metrics now correctly handle additional passkey registrations and cumulative adopter totals.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for first-time registrations, returning users, additional passkeys, cumulative adoption rates, and empty registration history.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

getUserAdoptionMetrics now loads users who registered before the query window. It uses that set to classify new and returning users, calculates adoption against cumulative adopters, and adds tests for the updated behavior.

Changes

Adoption metrics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Prior adopter classification
jans-fido2/server/src/main/java/io/jans/fido2/service/metric/Fido2MetricsService.java
The service performs a paged lookup of successful registrations before the window. It classifies first registrations as new users, prior adopters as returning users, and calculates adoption against prior plus new adopters.
Adoption metrics validation
jans-fido2/server/src/test/java/io/jans/fido2/service/metric/Fido2MetricsServiceTest.java
Tests cover returning users, first registration, second-passkey enrollment, cumulative adoption rates, query stubbing, and a null rate when no user has registered.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 40772

If the prior-registration lookup fails, the report can incorrectly classify established users as new and omit returning users while still producing valid-looking metrics. The change is not merge-ready until this failure path is handled explicitly or accepted by the owner.

Explanation

The implementation satisfies issue #14830. It identifies first-ever registrations, counts prior adopters as returning users, calculates adoption against cumulative adopters, handles an empty population with null, and adds matching tests.

452-455: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Do not convert lookup failures into an empty adopter set.

When getUsersRegisteredBefore catches a persistence exception and returns Collections.emptySet(), getUserAdoptionMetrics treats the failed lookup as a successful query with zero prior adopters. It then marks every successful registration in the window as newUsers and omits established active users from returningUsers, producing a valid-looking but incorrect report. Propagate the failure or return an explicit unavailable result, and add an error-path test.
