This test doesn't accurately validate your implementation. Your code creates a separate temporary file for each process attempting to write, but this test is only checking for data corruption during concurrent writes to the same key. The test should align with how your implementation actually handles file operations else it needs to be removed.

I mentioned this in my previous review as well, could you clarify what this line is doing? It looks like you’re writing to a single key, but your implementation creates several temporary files. Can you explain the reasoning behind that?

Yes, I am trying to make sure the isolation of each write (even to the same key) via separated temp files and the last-write-wins behavior. The test validates that all 9 write operations target the same final file, but os.replace ensures the atomicity and no corruption.

I see. Just trying to understand this a bit better. What’s the difference between “writing to the same key via separate temp files” and simply “writing to separate temp files”? In this case, what’s the reason for tying all writes to the same key?

Also, if you look at the checks, you will see that some tests are failing on Windows because it doesn’t allow multiple processes to write to the same file concurrently. On Windows, file permissions are stricter than on Unix systems, so concurrent writes to the same target file can fail. Please, check and validate that all the tests are passing after you publish a revision.

Writing to different keys actually works well even without this implementation. However in real-world scenario, we are using automated scripts that trigger aws-cli to simultaneously refresh the same cached credential, and that often occurs corruption JSON file. The test of writing to the same key via separated temp files is to simulate this sort of race condition and to validate the last-write-wins.

About the winsdow permission problem, I've made the modifications of adding some windows condition in the latest commit.
