This test is sporadically failing on Jenkins. The test_default_config test effectively only waits a total of 16 seconds for LibreOffice to start up before giving up. The assumption is that this isn’t long enough when the build bots are under heavy load from parallel testing. This patch removes test_default_config and replaces the delays in the other two tests with an infinite iterator so that it will keep trying to connect every second forever. If there is a real problem launching LibreOffice on Jenkins then eventually the kill-wrapper will kick in to make the test fail.

Python UNO Bindings
UNO bindings for the Python programming language.
To have much joy debugging Python extensions you need to:
- a) edit
pythonloader.pyin your install settingDEBUG=1at the top - b)
touch pyuno/source/module/pyuno_runtime.cxxandmake debug=trueinpyuno
Then you'll start to see your exceptions on the console instead of them getting lost at the UNO interface.
Python also comes with a gdb script
libpython$(PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR).$(PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR)m.so.1.0-gdb.py
that is copied to instdir and will be auto-loaded by gdb;
it provides commands like py-bt to get a Python-level backtrace,
and py-print to print Python variables.
Another way to debug Python code is to use pdb: edit some initialization
function to insert import pdb; pdb.set_trace() (somewhere so that it is
executed early), then run soffice from a terminal and a command-line Python
debugger will appear where you can set Python-level breakpoints.
