> I've been reading up on Executors#sameThreadExecutor, and I don't think
we can use this here since it runs the task prior to getting any Future. The
timeout logic would not kick in until the task is finished.
The task has to be run in a separate thread while the main thread idles to
trigger the timeout.
Ahh, bummer. Thought I could be tricky and help save us yet another thread
;)
> Either way the test passes since the Status returned is the same, but it
isn't a very good test since the behavior isn't really defined. I think we are
a bit too high-level here for a unit test.
I would be happy with a test that is not "human-level". That is, if you can
write a test showing that your interrupt/retry logic works, I would +1 that.
