Hello,
Today I've fixed all my cucumber flaky tests which tested Sphinx
searches.
Tests didn't run consistently because search daemon didn't always
caught changes in the model.
Previously, I had the following step to update indexes:
Given 'the Sphinx indexes are updated' do
# Update all indexes
ThinkingSphinx::Test.index
sleep(0.25) # Wait for Sphinx to catch up
end
To fix the problem, I've changed this to:
Given 'the Sphinx indexes are updated' do
# Update all indexes
File.truncate("log/searchd.log", 0)
ThinkingSphinx::Test.index
sleep(0.05) while IO.readlines("log/searchd.log").last !~ /rotating
finished/
end
This change made my tests much more stable.
Hope this helps to someone :)
Kind regards,
KIR
