Yeah, it would be better to quit these sessions after the test is
complete because there are other two background sessions as well. I
used the method to quit these sessions as used in
\src\test\modules\test_misc\t\005_timeouts.pl. The attached passes for
me on both Linux and Windows (check on HEAD only as of now). I'll do
some more testing on back branches as well and push tomorrow morning
if there are no more comments.
