test_microbot fails to establish connection and fails

[Alexander Balderson]

The test_microbot test from the kubernetes test suite is failling because it cannot connect to the instance.

The pod logs show that the instance is up; and that the instance is getting requests:
10.1.49.1 - - [14/Jun/2020:10:00:44 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 351 "-" "kube-probe/1.18" "-"

crashdump is attached.

This looks similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/charmed-kubernetes-testing/+bug/1878231

Which was fixed by https://github.com/charmed-kubernetes/jenkins/commit/11a0b52a41eca2f23de7685b3eaff23a933272a5

Can you please tell us what commit of the jenkins repo you're running the tests from? Or at least confirm that the version you're running includes the above fix?
