Description

I've got a PR to add a connectionExpiry option to Pools that automatically terminates a connection after a set number of milliseconds. I went to write tests for it and realized that there aren't any tests at all for the pools.

Would it be worthwhile for me to try to port over the pool and pool cluster tests from node-mysql and update them for mysql2's changes?
