there's a function-scoped variable in the test named "introducer", and a function that closes over it called _wait_until_idle(), which polls it's "outstanding message" count waiting for it to drop to zero then later, the introducer gets replaced with a new one _wait_until_idle is still watching the old introducer, and doesn't notice the outstanding messages on the new one
