Consistent way to fail the test
Add at least 1s sleep in between the below lines
sonic-platform-daemons/sonic-xcvrd/tests/test_xcvrd.py
Lines 1966 to 1967 in d0fd1e1
task.start()
assert wait_until(5, 1, task.is_alive)
Motivation and Context
fixessonic-net#369, fixessonic-net#370, fixessonic-net#382
Intention of the testcase
The test case tests a scenario wherein while SfpStateUpdateTask thread is busy polling for few seconds, its parent process (xcvrd in an ideal case) generates an exception to stop the SfpStateUpdateTask thread in the middle of polling.
RCA for current failure
Since test_SfpStateUpdateTask_task_run_stop does not have all the underlying functions of SfpStateUpdateTask.task_worker mocked, there is a probability of SfpStateUpdateTask thread exiting early which will thereby cause assert wait_until(5, 1, task.is_alive) to fail based on the place at which SfpStateUpdateTask thread crashes.
Fix details
Modified the implementation of XcvrTableHelper function to have a busy polling to ensure that SfpStateUpdateTask thread does not quit before the test_SfpStateUpdateTask_task_run_stop testcase raises an exception.
Also, this approach will ensure that if any new function calls are being added in SfpStateUpdateTask.task_worker, they will not needed to be mocked in SfpStateUpdateTask.task_worker since XcvrTableHelper is the first function called in SfpStateUpdateTask.task_worker.
How Has This Been Tested?
Ran the test multiple times to ensure that the testcases passes.
Also, added a 3s sleep in between the below lines and ensured that the testcases was passing consistently.
