Subject: Allow one test to fail on Windows C implementation
X-Git-Tag: pool-3.1~9
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ee2232d122ca1e07ebe18be598e09c5804d79059;p=thirdparty%2Fpsycopg.git

Allow one test to fail on Windows C implementation

This test doesn't run in tox, so it doesn't benefit from repeats, and it
fails often indeed on flakey tests.

Add pytest option to tolerate a number of failures, and use it.
