What is odd about this problem is that:
100
to fire when the watermark advances to 100 - but instead, it fires together with the timer set to1000
when the watermark advances to infinity.On the other hand, if we set
advance_watermark_to(101)
, the test behaves properly without any need for modifications.BUT, what's even more odd is that when doing the actual check in trigger.py as to whether the timer should be fired, we do check for
<=
. Strange.:https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/python/apache_beam/transforms/trigger.py#L1273
Nonetheless, this change does fix the new test (which was previously failing) - and I believe it does correct the behavior. So. Yes.
I'll keep hunting for bugs.
