As we introduce more and more session-aware methods, our current tests are being exposed as brittle. For example, I just had to introduce storeManyRunnable() to perform a sequence of stores, because sequential storeRunnable() calls were trampling each other -- each sets its own delegate, and they race, leading to callbacks hitting the wrong delegate. storeRunnable() also issues storeDone(), which means you can't issue subsequent stores. Transactional storing (Bug 709348) leaves us with tests that violate our own API -- they store a record and attempt to retrieve it within the same session, which we are explicitly trying to avoid. I've worked around this by having the test classes override the transactional tracking, but this is going to leave us with a test ghetto in which a large slab of our functionality is tested by tangled code that doesn't run the way it will in the real world. The right solution is for a batch of stores and the subsequent fetch to take place in different sessions, but that'll require chopping up a lot of test code. This bug is for that.

We're not going to fix this, so I'm re-using this ticket to test some bugzilla integration code.

rnewman doesn't like bugspam and we've addressed this ticket in different ways, so closing.
