Slimes spawn constantly in my slime farm, ver1.7.0.
but I confirmed they sometimes spawn in the outside of slime chunk.
Some areas work correctly, they spawn in the slime chunk.
Some other areas don't work. they don't spawn, or they spawn in the outside of slime chunk.

I have the same issue on a bedrock realm. I have issued a bug for it https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/REALMS-1384.
Some chunks have remained as per before the update and some have moved.
Also
Since the latest update. The YouTuber Foxy No Tail had spawn proofed his base and found slimes outside the chunks where it should be impossible for them to spawn. https://youtu.be/ZV7EI4B6bL4?t=879
I can confirm this issue. I have several slime farms but none of them spawn slimes since 1.7.0. They are now spawning in non-slime chunks instead. One of the chunks I have repeatedly seen slimes is (3280, 4848)-(3295, 4863), which isn't supposed to be a slime chunk:

There is confirmation (from a developer?) on reddit that slime chunks changed in 1.7:
"
I looked it up, and we changed the way we generate a random value for each chunk in 1.7, and that random value is used to determine whether or not that chunk is a slime chunk. Effectively, this means a completely different set of chunks are slime chunks now 😞
I'll see if we can reveal details of this, because it could be pretty hard to reverse engineer."
So you "fixed" the bug you introduced in 1.7 hosing anyone who started a world in 1.8. This change fouled up my whole world.
This bug may need to be reopened. According to Slime Finder PE, chunks <-28,56>, <-28,57>, <-29,58>, <-30,58>, and <-31,58>. If you will look at
[media], you will see that only <-28,56> seems to be generating slime mobs.
T: Sorry about that. There were no working tools for finding slime chunks in 1.7 or 1.8, so you're one of very few people who was able to make a working slime farm during that time. I made the code much harder to break, so going forward, slime chunks should all stay the same.
JC: Thanks for sharing the world. I'm not sure offhand why only one of the five chunks is working now, but it may be because the others are close to the village. I'll have to debug the code to see when I get back in the office.
I have a similar issue with mcpe iOS. In 1.6, my slime farm was spawning slimes. After the 1.7 update slimes are no longer spawning in my slime chunk
