The job [1] was started at Nov 5, 2020 1:35pm GMT+0300 on tarantool_mac4
runner and had 13 minutes 34 seconds duration. So it ended somewhere
around 1:48pm-1:49pm. The vardir is /tmp/tnt. The worker name, which
runs replication/ddl.test.lua, is 096_replication.

The job [2] (one you refer below) was started at Nov 5, 2020 1:49pm
GMT+0300 on tarantool_mac4 runner and had 13 minutes 45 seconds
duration. So it ended somewhere around 2:02pm-2:03pm. The vardir is
/tmp/tnt.  The worker name, which runs replication/ddl.test.lua, is
096_replication.

The logs gives more timestamps:

[087] +++ /tmp/tnt/rejects/small/obuf.reject	Thu Nov  5 13:54:13 2020
<replication/ddl.test.lua reruns>
[097] +++ /tmp/tnt/rejects/vinyl/iterator.reject	Thu Nov  5 14:02:51 2020

So the jobs were not run at the same time. But one follows another and
the worker names were the same. Looks suspectful? I don't know. I also
see that ddl.test.lua replicas use the same listen socket path as tests
that use autobootstrap.lua and autobootstrap_anon.lua. So maybe we
failed to stop a server, but the error was suppressed by one of test-run
patches you made?

Really, the only thing we can do about such problems, is to make guesses
and add logs, which can prove or decline those guesses. We should not
try to blindly fix them: it is highway to ever more obscure problems.
