Description

MockS3_PINGDiscoveryTestCase.testDiscovery intermittently fails in CI with:

member count ==> expected: <5> but was: <4>

Fails non-deterministically on JDK 17 (Ubuntu/macOS); rerunning passes. Likely a timing issue on slower runners — the discovery timeout may need to be increased.

Example: https://github.com/jgroups-extras/jgroups-aws/actions/runs/25569466993/job/75061215084 (surfaced in #576)

Research direction

Start with MockS3_PINGDiscoveryTestCase.testDiscovery and the discovery timeout used by that test; inspect the intermittent JDK 17 CI failure and its timing assumptions. Done means the test reliably discovers all five members on the affected Ubuntu and macOS runners.
