New issue 24708 by [email protected]: Hidden Flakiness in
BrowserEncodingTest.TestOverrideEncoding (others?)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24708

Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 4: N/A
Firefox 3.x: N/A

IE 8: N/A
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. In the UI test BrowserEncodingTest.TestOverrideEncoding comment out
everything after the first WaitForNavigation
2. Run the test dozens of times
3. It fails (on my machine) about once every 30 or so runs
What is the expected result?
SUCCESS
What happens instead?
FAILURE
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
AFAICT, it seems to be a timing issue on shutdown, where some data is being
transmitted when the pipe has already
been closed (pipe error 109). I haven't yet been able to discern the exact
cause, though. The parts following the
WaitForNavigation mask this by causing an additional delay.
Discovered this issue while trying to find out the reason for the flakiness
of my own UI test I modeled after
BrowserEncodingTest.TestOverrideEncoding (see
http://codereview.chromium.org/255057 - test not yet committed at time
of this writing for obvious reasons). For whatever reason, my test fails
far more often though, and so may make the
better debugging case.
