Hi infra,

This is not the first time I see these tests fail randomly. The issue may be either bad code or bad test failing randomly.
I suggest to exclude these tests until the issue is resolved.
Do you know if the random failures are limited to Jenkins slaves?
I happens on my hosts from time to time, and now also on jenkins. It would be nice if jenkins would send email to the author of the failing tests. Either the test is bad and you wont to fix it, or someone else broke your test and you want to "fix" someone :-)
