We ran into this around webhook delivery during a traffic spike. We needed a lock so two workers would not process the same job. One option expired itself. The other lived next to our source of truth. Failover behavior mattered more than the benchmark. We started with the store we could operate, then moved the hot path later. Pick the tool your on-call can reason about.
We ran into this around webhook delivery after we split the monolith. Retries arrived out of order and our fixtures only modeled the happy path. Sleeping in tests hid the races and slowed CI. Replaying a small set of recorded payloads found the idempotency bug. We asserted on stored keys, not on elapsed time. The suite is shorter and finally recreates the incident we cared about.

We ran into this around webhook delivery on a quiet Sunday incident. Retries arrived out of order and our fixtures only modeled the happy path. Sleeping in tests hid the races and slowed CI. Replaying a small set of recorded payloads found the idempotency bug. We asserted on stored keys, not on elapsed time. The suite is shorter and finally recreates the incident we cared about.
