Subject: | Fails often when tested in parallel |
Today I watched my smoker with four new perls 5.21.3 running in parallel and App-Cache-0.37 produced 3 fails and one pass. I repeated this with the three failing perls and I got one pass and two fails. I repeated with the remaining two and got two passes. I repeated with all 4 and I got two passes and two fails. Looks like a locking issue. If this kind of behaviour is intended, then I should probably put this on a blacklist, because I cannot easily prevent that tests run in parallel on the same host.
What do you think?
