Subject: Transient failure in t/86gofer_fail.t
Hi, I got a test failure (below) in t/86gofer_fail.t, then tried again and it passed. t/86gofer_fail............ok 1/0 # Failed test 'should fail ~25% (ie 50% with one retry) (got 39)' t/86gofer_fail............NOK 18/0# at t/86gofer_fail.t line 92. # '39' # <= # '35' t/86gofer_fail............ok 26/0# Looks like you failed 1 test of 28. From a glance at the code, it looks like it's depending on probabilities to make this test pass, so it's expected to fail sometimes. Is that right? -Ken
Yes. I've made it much less likely to fail for 1.57. I've also added a non-random (1-in-N) mechanism but haven't updated all the tests to use it yet.
