Issue 783242: test_ossaudiodev timing failure (original) (raw)

test_audiodev reports a failure because the expected output includes the line:

elapsed time: 2.9 sec

but when run on my system (RH 9.0), produces the output:

elapsed time: 3.0 sec

I'm not sure what the right fix is, but including that bit of timing information seems somewhat fragile; you don't want to number to be too low, but it should be ok for it to be a little high since you can't control time slices allocated to the test all that precisely.
