[vtk-developers] Non-reproducable test failure

[David Cole]

Does this test access some resource that is also accessed by another
test which is likely to be running at the same time? Does it only fail
when that resource is held/blocked by the other test...?

Should it have the RUN_SERIAL flag? (or a test dependency...?)
