Flaky tests

How are you using the lua-language-server?

Other

Which OS are you using?

Linux

What is the issue affecting?

Other

Expected Behaviour

Tests pass all the time.

Actual Behaviour

Tests sometimes fail.

Reproduction steps

1. Run ./make.sh

Additional Notes

I'm updating luals in a linux software repository called nixpkgs. There we also run the tests after we build it, and those fail sometimes, see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/352961#issuecomment-2452494838

在 Linux 上反复运行 ./make.sh，并以 test/tclient/tests/load-relative-library.lua:54 中记录的失败为起点。阅读周围的测试以及通过 script/lclient.lua 报告的调用路径，以确定 assertion 为什么会间歇性发生。测试套件能够可靠地完成且不再出现此失败时，即表示完成。
