If you process them in the deterministic order, it works. If the order is random, it sometimes does not. That's as simple as that. there is no "dependency check" here. Unlike the previous attemtpt which sometimes worked, sometimes did not - this will work for sure. The problem (here and few other tests) is that there was an implicit assumption that all tasks will have state set. But this is not how it works when you process the tasks in test in random order. If you first process the tasks that are depending on other (non-processed) tasks, they will keeep their state to None - which causes test failure. Fortunately the structure of the test tasks is that if you process them in the alphabetical order, the test will always succeed - because task1 is before task2 (and in our tests task2 depends on task1). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
