software updater tests fail on testbed-mac

Closed this issue · 1 comments

The software updater tests have been failing when I run them on testbed-mac. I didn't keep any previous logs with this, it looks like, but the error was "First software updater never died." raised from line 325 of test_updater_local.py.

This is hopefully fixed in r3207. I raised the time it waits for the old software updater process to die from 2 minutes to 6 minutes. I didn't want to raise it further in case it could mask other problems. If this test turns out to be flaky at the same point when the continuousbuild gets going on testbed-mac, then it probably should be increased a bit further.
