I am lucky today, all my PRs trigger very rare error in test_asyncio 😆

[JelleZijlstra]

I think this happened in 3.6:

In [22]: typing_inspect.get_args(Union[List[str], Set[str]]) Out[22]: ((typing.List, str), (typing.Set, str)) 

[sobolevn]

This test officially won:

 ====================================================================== FAIL: test_sendfile_close_peer_in_the_middle_of_receiving (test.test_asyncio.test_sendfile.ProactorEventLoopTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\a\cpython\cpython\Lib\test\test_asyncio\test_sendfile.py", line 461, in test_sendfile_close_peer_in_the_middle_of_receiving with self.assertRaises(ConnectionError): ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AssertionError: ConnectionError not raised 

No idea why it happens so often today. I've tried to re-trigger the CI twice, but it still fails.

Could it be that bpo-46409 / GH-30633 destabilized that test even more? Is there evidence in other PRs that this is happening more often?

If it's timing related (as sounds likely) it could also have to do with congestion in the fleet of machines where GitHub Actions are run. Possibly someone should open a separate bug. Even if it's not any PR's fault, the asyncio tests are clearly more flaky than most, and are causing a fair amount of CI churn.

[gvanrossum]

Trying once more.

[AlexWaygood]

Is there evidence in other PRs that this is happening more often?

Anecdotally, from what I can tell, it does seem to have been occurring much more often in the last few weeks.

[gvanrossum]

So not Mark's generators PR, but maybe something else. Any chance of plotting these occurrences? That could make it obvious where to look. (But getting the data to plot might be complicated.)

Me-test: 1-1 😆
#30801

Now, it should be fine!

[Fidget-Spinner]

Wow, that's an interesting blast from the past.

That looks unrelated to this PR.
