On Travis Windows we were hitting this race in
cli_test_driver
. We start a Dart process with--observe=0
but we don't start it paused so the first print statements sometimes came before the Observatory banner and the coed always assumed the first line output was the banner.The result is that when the first line came through, we crashed:
We could've just waited for the one that looked like the banner, but it seems more sensible to connect and unpause so that if in future we need tests to be able to collect the first actual line, we can do it by giving a hook before the unpause.
