Source: mdanalysis Followup-For: Bug #1104387 Control: tags -1 ftbfs Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/4906
There is a degree of flakiness in the mdanalysis tests, known upstream, https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/4209 https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/4906 test_distance often comes up, but the failures are random all over the place. They will pass on a repeat. So it's hard to know where to start with the problem. Running no tests at all doesn't seem the best way. Skip every failing test one by one as they come up, until the probability of failure is sufficiently reduced to not trigger your testing system? But given the discussion on Issue #4906, perhaps for now we can address it by skipping test_distances entirely, until #4906 is fixed.
