Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-10836:
----------------------------------------------

I strongly suspect this is an issue with the tests. All those tests are doing conditional updates but use non SERIAL reads, and since the consistency for both commit and read defaults to ONE, it is expected that there is no specific consistency guarantees and the flapping is not surprising. I've created a [pull request|https://github.com/riptano/cassandra-dtest/pull/770] to fix that and use SERIAL reads. There was also a mix of conditional and non-conditional updates in those tests, which is equally dodgy, so the pull request changes those so we can hopefully get more reliable testing.

I've checked that all the modified test pass with the change, but given the tests were flapping somewhat irregularly, I think we'll have to commit and wait to see if this does fix the issue on the long run (but I'm confident we _at least_ need the changes of the pull request if we want reliable test).

> A number of the {{upgrade_tests}} in dtest are flapping with data integrity bugs. For instance:
> http://cassci.datastax.com/view/cassandra-3.0/job/cassandra-3.0_dtest/422/testReport/upgrade_tests.cql_tests/TestCQLNodes3RF3/conditional_delete_test/history/

> This needs further digging to get good debug information; it could well be, e.g., a race condition in the test. I have not reproduced locally.
