_Originally created by Tails on [#5330 (Redmine)](https://public-redmine-archive.tails.boum.org/code/issues/5330)_ Updated scope of this ticket: https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/5330#note_117537. A `sleep` that’s good enough on your hardware might not be good enough on mine (or in a nested VM setup in particular). We need to, whenever possible, use reliable ways to detect the state we are waiting for instead of `sleep`:ing some fixed time and hoping we’ve reached that state by then. Just run `git grep sleep features/step_definitions/*.rb` for an up-to-date list of these "violations\".
