[grpclb and fake resolver] clean up e2e tests and simplify fake resolver (#34887) Changes to fake resolver: - Add `WaitForReresolutionRequest()` method to fake resolver response generator to allow tests to tell when re-resolution has been requested. - Change fake resolver response generator API to have only one mechanism for injecting results, regardless of whether the result is an error or whether it's triggered by a re-resolution. Changes to grpclb_end2end_test: - Change balancer interface such that instead of setting a list of responses with fixed delays, the test can control exactly when each response is set. - Change balancer impl to always send the initial LB response, as expected by the grpclb protocol. - Change balancer impl to always read load reports, even if load reporting is not expected to be enabled. (The latter case will still cause the test to fail.) Reads are done in a different thread than writes. - Allow each test to directly control how many backends and balancers are started and the client load reporting interval, so that (a) we don't waste resources starting servers we don't need and (b) there is no need to arbitrarily split tests across different test classes. - Add timeouts to `WaitForAllBackends()` functionality, so that tests will fail with a useful error rather than timing out. - Improved ergonomics of various helper functions in the test framework. In the process of making these changes, I found a couple of bugs: - A bug in pick_first, which I fixed in #34885. - A bug in grpclb, in which we were using the wrong condition to decide whether to propagate a re-resolution request from the child policy, which I've fixed in this PR. (This bug probably originated way back in #18344.) This should address a lot of the flakes seen in grpclb_e2e_test recently.
gRPC is a modern, open source, high-performance remote procedure call (RPC) framework that can run anywhere. gRPC enables client and server applications to communicate transparently, and simplifies the building of connected systems.
To maximize usability, gRPC supports the standard method for adding dependencies to a user‘s chosen language (if there is one). In most languages, the gRPC runtime comes as a package available in a user’s language package manager.
For instructions on how to use the language-specific gRPC runtime for a project, please refer to these documents

Precompiled bleeding-edge package builds of gRPC master branch's HEAD are uploaded daily to packages.grpc.io.
Contributions are welcome!
Please read How to contribute which will guide you through the entire workflow of how to build the source code, how to run the tests, and how to contribute changes to the gRPC codebase. The “How to contribute” document also contains info on how the contribution process works and contains best practices for creating contributions.
Sometimes things go wrong. Please check out the Troubleshooting guide if you are experiencing issues with gRPC.
