There is a race in the test:
```
*** [err]: Diskless load swapdb (async_loading): new database is exposed after swapping in tests/integration/replication.tcl
Expected 'myvalue' to be equal to '' (context: type eval line 3 cmd {assert_equal [$replica GET mykey] ""} proc ::test)
```
When doing `$replica GET mykey`, the replica is using the old database.
The reason may be that when doing `master client kill type replica`,
the replica did not yet realize it got disconnected from the master.
So the check of master_link_status fails, and the replica did not
finish the swapdb and the loading.
In that case, i think the solution is to check the sync_full stat on
the master and wait for it to get incremented from the previous value.
i.e. the way to know that we're done with the full sync is not to check
that our state is up (could be up if we check too early), but rather
check that the sync_full counter got incremented.
During the reviewing, we found another race, in Aborted testType,
the `$master config set rdb-key-save-delay 10000` is done after we
already initiated the disconnection, so there's a chance that the replica
will attempt to reconnect before that call, in which case if we fork() before
it, the config will not take effect. Move it to above the disconnection.

Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
| Option | Impact |
|---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_servercontexttagscontext that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
| Tag | Indicates |
|---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode. |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not compatible with --tls. |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT REFCOUNT). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE or BGSAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the
external:skip tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
