I can't judge how far it is from polished, and whether it's worth having this test or should be removed in the meantime, but I would like to clarify this part from my previous email that you might have interpreted as a suggestion to remove these tests (it confused even myself on second read): > I wonder why that failing 'git p4 sync' is > necessary in the first place, and whether it's really necessary to > test ticket expiration I was not wondering whether it's necessary to test ticket expiration _in general_. What I really meant was whether that first 'git p4 sync' was really necessary in that test 'git operation with expired ticket'. After all, what we want to see in this test is that 'git p4 sync' fails with a specific error message when the ticket expired, and when flakiness hits, then this first 'git p4 sync' does fail with the expected error message. > A better way to actually run the test is to create a python > "fake" version of "p4" which returns whatever expiry results > the test requires. > > Ideally git-p4 would look at the expiry time before starting > any long operations, and cleanup gracefully if there is not > enough time left.
