Description

See https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/maedhroz/cassandra/487/workflows/0ad42210-2979-4c5d-a4e8-d8cedf9285a7/jobs/4686/tests#failed-test-0
 
My guess is that in some resource constrained environment, even the first nodeool listsnapshots invocation doesn’t have “dropped” in the stdout. In other words, we skip to the state of the world the last assertion in the test is checking.
