From c5a177c1ef3cee783ae474f6f071cd85b5e838c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: bm1549 Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 16:08:33 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Fix Pekko HTTP async test exception flakiness The async handler's exception path caused a failed Future whose span completion depended on Scala continuation cleanup. With strict trace writes enabled in tests, if the root span finished while continuations were still pending, the trace was enqueued to a discarding buffer and never written, causing a 20-second timeout in waitForTraces. Fix by recovering from exceptions in the async handler to return a proper 500 HTTP response instead of a failed Future. This routes span completion through the success path of the DatadogAsyncHandlerWrapper transform callback, avoiding the problematic continuation cleanup race. Also remove the @Flaky annotation from the "test exception" test since the root cause is now fixed.
