Here's where those tests got merged: https://review.openstack.org/17439

Interesting that Jenkins didn't report any failures there

    fix intermittent failures with deferred version test

    Need to get rid of the deferred string approach as
    the problem was overriding string methods is hard and
    flaky. There is just no other documented
    argparse hook to allow deferring of the version
    calculation as version passed in has to be a str
    or buffer. Added a test to try longer string and even
    run it in a loop just to be sure.

    Fixes LP #1087575
