Not the author of these two ones, but am I the only one who does not see the point of these two tests? These check that something does not happen, but log_contains() is useful to make sure that an event *actually happens*. Wouldn't it be simpler to remove these checks or switch them to use/add a log message that's triggered with a state that we'd expect to happen in reality? -- Michael
