test: cut the -j48 --ramdisk functional test run to ~70s without reducing coverage - #7988
A full functional test run with test_runner.py -j32 --ramdisk takes about 110s. Almost all of that is the critical path: feature_llmq_simplepose.py alone took ~95s and feature_llmq_is_retroactive.py ~73s. Neither is CPU-bound; both mostly wait for DKG rounds and fixed windows. The rest of the suite finished well before them.
What was done?
Both tests are split by scenario into separate functional tests, moving the code unchanged:
feature_llmq_simplepose.py keeps the unreachable-masternode scenarios.
feature_llmq_simplepose_capabilities.py takes the outdated-protocol and missing-service scenarios. Both are still listed with and without --disable-spork23.
Their shared setup and banning helpers move to test_framework/simplepose.py as a mixin. The framework requires each test class to define run_test and set_test_params itself, so a base class would add nothing.
feature_llmq_is_retroactive_session_timeout.py takes both session-timeout scenarios, in their original order.
Each new test first sets up the preconditions its scenarios had in the original sequence, the way simplepose's --disable-spork23 branch already did. For simplepose that is SPORK_21 on, an existing quorum and healthy masternodes; for is_retroactive, mempool IS signing on, a cycle quorum and a ChainLocked tip.
Four tests that take 24-36s were listed among the short ones and so finished last. They now start in the first batch.
Not changed: mining_getblocktemplate_longpoll.py (~66s) is now the floor. It waits on a hard-coded 60s steady_clock timeout inside getblocktemplate, and changing RPC behaviour to speed up a test did not seem warranted.
How Has This Been Tested?
Full suite: on a 28-thread Linux machine, test_runner.py -j48 --ramdisk (peak ~18 GiB) took 65s and 71s, against a 109s baseline at -j32. The 65s run passed every test. The 71s run had three failures in tests this PR doesn't touch, while another dashd was running on the same machine. rpc_net.py saw a peer the test never created; the p2p_v2_encrypted.py and rpc_verifyislock.py network errors are consistent with the same interference.
Why not -j32: at -j32 the suite is bounded by total work (~2500s of test time / 32 slots ≈ 79s before any tail). Since the tests mostly wait, more jobs than cores pays off.
Moved code: every moved method is byte-identical to develop, checked by comparing method source. The exceptions: run_test is split; simplepose's set_test_params delegates to the mixin, which now also initialises deaf_mns; and the deaf_mns.clear() that only prepared the moved scenarios is dropped. The fixed sleeps in the moved scenarios are unchanged.
Scenarios: the new tests log the same scenarios, in the same order, as full runs of the original tests, for both spork23 modes.
Stability: each runner entry passed at least 2/2 runs in parallel; the simplepose ones passed 4/4 and the session-timeout test 3/3. Lint is clean (lint-python flake8 config, lint-files, test_runner's script-list check).
Pre-existing flake:wallet_fundrawtransaction.pytest_22670 fails intermittently (3/8 standalone) on code this PR doesn't touch.

Walkthrough
The retroactive signing-timeout scenario moves to a dedicated functional test. Simple PoSe setup and quorum helpers move into a shared mixin, and a new test covers outdated protocol versions and missing peer services. The test runner adds these tests and moves several existing tests into its under-60-second section.

- Around line 189-191: Move the `assert_debug_log` contexts so they begin before
the earlier mocktime advances, including `sync_mempools`, to capture timeout
entries emitted during synchronization. Increase the assertion deadlines to
allow for synchronization time while preserving the existing expected log
messages.
- Line 192: Before calling bump_mocktime(61), wait until nodes 1–3 have
processed all expected signing shares; sync_mempools and the five-second sleep
do not guarantee share processing has completed.

- Line 93: Replace the fixed time.sleep(5) in the test with a wait for an
observable signing-start signal from nodes 1 or 2 before advancing mocktime, so
the timeout-log checks run only after signing has begun.
- Line 108: Replace both fixed five-second sleeps in the retroactive session
timeout test with bounded observation of InstantLock state or a
processing-completion signal, and make the negative assertion only after
processing has completed or the observation window expires.

feature_llmq_simplepose.py (~95s under -j load) and
feature_llmq_is_retroactive.py (~73s) set the wall-clock floor of a
parallel test_runner run. Most of their time goes to waiting on DKG rounds
and fixed negative-check windows, not CPU, so splitting them lets the
runner overlap that waiting.
Split each along a scenario boundary into its own test, moving the code
unchanged:
- feature_llmq_simplepose.py keeps the unreachable masternode scenarios;
feature_llmq_simplepose_capabilities.py takes the outdated protocol and
missing service scenarios. Both keep --disable-spork23. Their shared
setup and banning helpers move to test_framework/simplepose.py as a
mixin: the framework requires every test class to define run_test and
set_test_params itself, so a base class would add nothing.
- feature_llmq_is_retroactive_session_timeout.py takes both session
timeout scenarios, in their original order.
Each new test first recreates the state the scenarios found before, the
way simplepose's --disable-spork23 branch already did: SPORK_21 on, an
existing quorum and healthy masternodes for simplepose; mempool IS signing
on, a cycle quorum and a ChainLocked tip for is_retroactive.
Longest test of each pair: simplepose 51-61s, is_retroactive 42-44s.

feature_config_args.py (~35s), mining_basic.py (~24s) and both
wallet_dust_protection.py variants (~36s) were listed among the short
tests, so with -j48 they only started once the first batch drained and
finished last. List them at the top of the "less than 60s" group.

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
The reviewed range cleanly splits the two slow LLMQ functional tests, preserves their scenario coverage and ordering, and reorders existing runner entries without changing production code. Lint and formatting checks pass; build checks are still queued, while the only failure is the procedural milestone requirement and does not indicate a code problem.
Triage: normal by gpt-6.1-sol (effort low) — Splitting stateful functional tests requires verifying scenario preconditions, shared setup, and preserved coverage across runner entries, but the diff changes no critical production surface.
