seems to be caused by bug 1280692

Attachment: bug_1290065_fix_sendbecon_intermittent.patch

Hey Carsten, the problem is that sendBeacon does not return a result from the server, hence we have to wait for a certain amount of time and query the result from the server using an XHR request. Before updating sendBeacon to not using 'cors' (within Bug 1280692) the redirect within in the test had to be blocked, hence 2 seconds where enough before querying the result.

Now that we have to wait that the redirect succeeds, we should extend the time frame before we query the result from 2 to 4 seconds.

I suppose the test is not intermittently failing on all platforms, but rather on slow ones only, right? e.g. Windows VM and such.
