 ## Setup
 
-The suites run against a live proxy, so bring one up first by running the litellm proxy locally. Point it at a config that prewires the example models the suites use (`gpt-5.5`, `claude-haiku-4-5`, `gemini-2.5-flash`, `openai-text-embedding-3-small`) with keys from your `.env`, and enables prompt storage, a redis cache, and the fast budget rescheduler the quota suites rely on. If your test needs another model, a pricing override, or a guardrail declared up front, add it to that config and read it back in the test rather than hardcoding values

+"""Live e2e: a deployment that fails is benched for its cooldown and comes back
+once the cooldown lapses.
+
+Every model group is the same pair: a deployment that always fails in one specific
+way (a 500, a 429, a 401, or a timeout) holding all of the group's shuffle weight,
+with an `allowed_fails_policy` of zero for that error class and a short
+`cooldown_time`, plus a healthy backup at weight 0. The first call, retries off,
+surfaces the failure to the customer as-is and benches the deployment. The next
+call, still inside the cooldown, lands on the backup, which the proxy names in
+x-litellm-model-id. Then the test polls until the weighted shuffle opens on the
+failing deployment again and the same failure comes back: that is the recovery,
+since a benched deployment is one the router will try again, not one it forgot.
+
+The failures are the same real ones the retry tests use: a 1ms deadline and a
+bogus key on the real backend, and this proxy standing in as the upstream for
+the 500 (fronting a group whose only deployment is unreachable) and the 429
+(fronting a healthy group with a key that already spent its one request per
+minute).

+and holds all of the group's shuffle weight, and a healthy backup at weight 0.
+The weighted pick always opens on the failing one, its first failure benches it
+(an `allowed_fails_policy` of zero for that error class), and the retry falls
 through to the only deployment left. So the customer sees a completion and the
-proxy reports that it took a retry to get there, with no random first pick in the
-middle of it.
+proxy reports that it took a retry to get there, with no random first pick in
+the middle of it.
+
+The failures are real. A timeout is a 1ms deadline on the real backend and a 401
+is a bogus key on it. A 500 and a 429 come from this same proxy standing in as
+the upstream: the failing deployment fronts a group of this proxy whose only
+deployment is unreachable (a real 500), or a healthy group called with a key that
+has already spent its one request per minute (a real 429), so the router sees the
+same statuses a customer's provider would send.
+
+The context-window retry cell has no test on purpose: the router refuses to
+retry a 400-class error, and a context-window refusal is one, so the documented
+`ContextWindowExceededErrorRetries` policy never fires. That row stays uncovered
+until the product either retries it or drops it from the docs.

+"""Live e2e: each routing strategy sends traffic where its own rule says, not
+where the shuffle weights point.
+
+Every test registers a two-deployment group on the real gpt-5.5 whose members
+differ only in the signal the strategy under test reads: the configured cost, the
+tpm headroom, the measured latency, or the in-flight request count. For the
+strategies that read a static or accumulated signal, deployment A holds all of
+the group's shuffle weight and B none, so the plain weighted shuffle always opens
+on A; a strategy that then sends every call to B has demonstrably read its own
+signal, and the closing simple-shuffle control call landing on A proves A was
+healthy the whole time, so the B picks cannot be explained by a cooldown.
+
+Least-busy reads live traffic, so its pair carries equal weights: one long
+streaming request is opened and held (its head names the deployment it landed
+on), and every short call sent while it is in flight must land on the other one.
+
+The per-request strategy comes in through `router_settings_override`, the same
+knob a key or team's `router_settings` feeds, so one long-lived proxy configured
+for simple-shuffle serves every strategy. The proxy builds a strategy's selector
+the first time a request asks for it, so the latency and least-busy tests open
+with a warm-up call under their strategy before seeding the signal they read.
