Description
This patch feels almost too simple to work, but it does.
For quite a while, we've had three tests from the
rand
plugin that take several seconds each. I had a Sopelunk with the Git version ofpytest-profiling
(because they haven't released in about 5 years and the last package is broken on modern Pythons) and discovered that about 98% of the time spent on the five tests selected bypytest -k rand.py
was intime.sleep()
.Drilling down, I saw that was being called from
bot.say()
, which led pretty quickly to the real culprit: Flood protection.There's no server to flood during tests, so we can just turn that protection off. With this change, those five tests from
rand
went from ~12 seconds on my test system down to about 0.25 sec.Checklist
