Issue Description
The test suite in this repo and in the JS SDK both have flaky tests. I believe this is due to the asyncronous nature of starting the server instance.
await ParseServer.startApp(newConfiguration);
I think the issue is after the promise resolves the server is still initializing. #8232
Parse.Query testing dontSelect query without conditions

Thanks for opening this issue!

So
initializedis the state after calling theParseServerconstructor. As soon as you callstart()on the instance, the state changes tostarting. From what you describe it looks likestart()has not been called at all, becausestartingis set synchronously after callingstart(). So it may be related to thereconfigureServerlogic; that promise may return early, rather than the server init itself. Which would be good, because that means it's only a testing issue, not a server issue.mtrezza commentedon Jun 28, 2024

Re-opened, I think we first need to upgrade the Parse JS SDK in Parse Server to see whether the Parse Server CI shows less flakiness.

I agree, I still don’t know why this is happening. I would like to think I solved it on the JS SDK

Issue still occurs in recent PRs; I have never seen this before; is this a recently introduced issue?
dplewis commentedon Jul 7, 2024
@mtrezza Looks like the server shutsdown and restarts randomly after a few hundred tests. If we turn off the randomized tests we should find a pattern.
mtrezza commentedon Jul 7, 2024
Okay, if you want to open a PR to temporarily disable random tests I'll go ahead and merge
