Flaky Test

• Test Name: TestClientPublishEventKerberosAware
• Link:

  Line 57 in a9db1b1

  func TestClientPublishEventKerberosAware(t *testing.T) {

• Branch: Failing in many PRs, for example here.
• Notes:
  • It is failing quite frequently in travis and jenkins. Not able to reproduce it locally, but same trace can be reproduced removing the kerberos settings, so it looks like if the kerberos settings are lost at some point, or somehow a client without kerberos credentials is used.
  • May be related to Fix libbeat.output.*.bytes metrics for ES #21197.
