Facet-set DimRange.fromDoubles/fromFloats (and range-on-range DoubleRange) make an exclusive bound inclusive with Math.nextUp/Math.nextDown, which skip the other signed zero, so a facet set holding -0.0 is counted by neither of the adjacent ranges [-1, 0) and [0, 1]

What it shows

You index one document with a DoubleFacetSet holding -0.0 and count it with two RangeFacetSetMatchers, DimRange.fromDoubles(-1, true, 0, false) and DimRange.fromDoubles(0, true, 1, true), which split [-1, 1] at zero; you expect the two counts to add up to 1, because -0.0 belongs to [-1, 0) if the zeros are ordered as Double.compare orders them (the sortable order the matcher compares in) and to [0, 1] if they compare equal. Instead both counts are 0, with no error, while a covering [-1, 1] range counts the document: fromDoubles turns the exclusive max 0 into Math.nextDown(+0.0) = -Double.MIN_VALUE, which in sortable order lies below -0.0, so -0.0 falls between the two ranges. fromFloats, the mirror case (+0.0 against [-1, -0.0] and (-0.0, 1], where Math.nextUp(-0.0) skips +0.0) and range-on-range DoubleRange behave the same way.

The module(s) facet also need their third-party runtime jars; ./gradlew -p lucene/<module> dependencies lists them.

Gradle alternative: copy the test into the matching module's src/test/ tree of the checkout and run ./gradlew -p lucene/<module> test --tests <class> -Ptests.seed=<seed> (add -Ptests.asserts=false for a run without assertions).
