What is the value of this and can you measure success?

This change supports an A/B test for the UK daily email newsletter, allowing a new variant (email/uk/daily-with-highlights) to pull in the breaking UK section as the email/uk/daily one does.

Success can be measured by comparing open/click-through rates between the control group (email/uk/daily) and the highlights variant (email/uk/daily-with-highlights).

What does this change?

Adds support for a new email front path email/uk/daily-with-highlights in FapiFrontPress:

  • Routes the new path: email/uk/daily-with-highlights is now recognised in mapped to the uk front config.
  • Ensures the new email front is re-pressed when the UK front changes: email/uk/daily-with-highlights has been added to the dependentFrontPaths map under "uk", so it will be re-pressed whenever the main UK front is pressed — meaning that a breaking news section will appear in this email front when the UK front is pressed.

Screenshots

N/A — backend-only change, no UI impact.
