Description

The org.eclipse.xtext.common.types.ui.notification.TypeResourceUnloaderTest.testCloseEditorAndDiscardWorkingCopy test is flaky, sometimes it is failing on Jenkins but succeeds on my local Windows computer.

Research direction

Start with org.eclipse.xtext.common.types.ui.notification.TypeResourceUnloaderTest.testCloseEditorAndDiscardWorkingCopy and reproduce the failure in Jenkins, comparing it with the successful Windows run. Done means the test executes reliably without intermittent failures; the linked pull request discussion may provide additional context.
