test.support.mock.mock_open specifies a side effect so that if you constantly
read a mocked open call, it will only iterate through it once, and then after
it will appear as if the end of the file has been reached.
This is needed for salt.modules.cp.push to be tested correctly.
The automatic back-porting process did't work for this file since the
testing file has been renamed. I manually added the changes to
`timezone_test.py` that were present in PR #41615.
This new part of the test_exit_status_correct_usage test was added
in PR #41382. This test, along with some memory leakage for the
test running in Python 3, has exposed an underlying issue with
Minion._thread_return subprocessing in the test suite. Due to this
issue, this test is extremely flaky.
Per @DmitryKuzmenko's recomendation in https://github.com/saltstack/salt-jenkins/issues/378,
this test should be commented out for the time being. He is planning
on coming back to this issue to uncomment the test once the underlying
problem has been resolved.
tests.support.helpers passes the single-asterisk tuple of args as
individual arguments to runtest_helpers.modules_available. This breaks
tests which pass more than one argument to the requires_salt_modules
decorator.
This has been fixed by making runtests_helpers.modules_available accept
an arbitrary number of args via using a single-asterisk.
If apache-libcloud 2.0.0 is installed, the workaround outlined in issue #32743
no longer applies and should be avoided. However, we still need to support older
versions of apache-libcloud that need this work-around.
The minimum version required of apache-libcloud has been updated to 2.0.0 in pull
request #40837, which will released in Oxygen. #40837 has removed all of the
work-arounds needed for issue #32743 for 2.0.0. Until Oxygen is released, however,
we need to support both the work-around for older versions of apache-libcloud as
well as 2.0.0.
This is the error

After talking to @cro, all of the mac power modules became super flaky in
Sierra. Because of this, I am marking all of the mac power tests with the
flaky decorator.
This allows for the shutdown function to also terminate any orphaned
processes which were spawned during the time between when
terminate_process is invoked, and when the processes are actually
killed.
