[ovirt-devel] [VDSM] test_import_modules randomly failing on travis

[Nir Soffer]

Hi all,

Vdsm travis tests are running file for some weeks. We have several
random failures, probably bad tests that needs to be fixed.

The most common failure is this - failing only in python 3.

======================================================================
ERROR: test_import_modules(('a.py', 'b.py', 'a.pyc', 'a.pyioas'),
('a', 'b')) (moduleloader_test.ImportModulesTest)
