DickJC123 opened a new pull request #17312: Fix flakey 
test_ndarray.py:test_reduce
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/17312
 
 
   ## Description ##
   This PR improves the reliability of the test_reduce unittest in 
test_ndarray.py.  Two seen test failure outputs are shown below and can be 
repro'd with:
   ```
   MXNET_TEST_SEED=359297469 nosetests --verbose -s --logging-level=DEBUG 
tests/python/unittest/test_ndarray.py:test_reduce
   MXNET_TEST_SEED=626874295 nosetests --verbose -s 
tests/python/unittest/test_ndarray.py:test_reduce
   ```
    In the first case, the tolerance for the float32 precision tests appears to 
be too tight, and has been relaxed.  In the other case, a cast of the input 
data for the numpy 'golden copy' only was removed so that the data is identical 
for both models in the comparison, as is critical for getting argmax and argmin 
to compare identically.  This only became a problem when float64 testing was 
recently introduced to this test.
   
   With the fixes, 3000 trials of this test generated no errors.

   ### Essentials ###
   Please feel free to remove inapplicable items for your PR.
   - [ ] The PR title starts with [MXNET-$JIRA_ID], where $JIRA_ID refers to 
the relevant [JIRA issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/MXNET/issues) 
created (except PRs with tiny changes)
   - [ X] Changes are complete (i.e. I finished coding on this PR)
   - [X ] All changes have test coverage:
   - Unit tests are added for small changes to verify correctness (e.g. adding 
a new operator)
   - Nightly tests are added for complicated/long-running ones (e.g. changing 
distributed kvstore)
   - Build tests will be added for build configuration changes (e.g. adding a 
new build option with NCCL)
   - [ ] Code is well-documented: 
   - For user-facing API changes, API doc string has been updated. 
   - For new C++ functions in header files, their functionalities and arguments 
are documented. 
   - For new examples, README.md is added to explain the what the example does, 
the source of the dataset, expected performance on test set and reference to 
the original paper if applicable
   - Check the API doc at 
https://mxnet-ci-doc.s3-accelerate.dualstack.amazonaws.com/PR-$PR_ID/$BUILD_ID/index.html
   - [ ] To the best of my knowledge, examples are either not affected by this 
change, or have been fixed to be compatible with this change
   
   ### Changes ###
   - [ ] Feature1, tests, (and when applicable, API doc)
