`ServerImportJsonModal` > "guards against a live edit made before the
debounce re-validates" opened its window on the real clock: it pasted
invalid JSON and clicked Add Server, relying on less than
VALIDATE_DEBOUNCE_MS (300ms) of wall time elapsing in between. When more
did, the debounce landed first, `canAdd` went false, and the click hit a
disabled button — a no-op that sets no submit error, so the
`findByText(/Fix the validation errors/)` timed out. The first assertion
(`onAddServer` not called) still passed, which is why the failure read as
mysterious rather than as a disabled button.
Run the test on fake timers end to end instead. The first validation is
landed explicitly with `advanceTimersByTimeAsync(VALIDATE_DEBOUNCE_MS)`
— imported from the hook, so the test cannot drift from the value it
depends on — and after the second paste the timers are simply not
advanced. The pending re-validation therefore cannot land at all, the
window stays open by construction, and the final assertion becomes a
synchronous `getByText`.
Verified with a throwaway probe holding both shapes side by side with a
deterministic 400ms stall injected between the paste and the click: the
old shape fails exactly as reported, the new one passes.
No timeout was widened and no production code changed.
Closes#2250
