`test_modal_pop_screen()` is apparently still flaky in CI even after increasing the pauses in #6116. Try changing the Footer `click` to `mouse_down` instead to avoid the `NoWidget` error in the pilot mouse events.

Doesn't this change the nature of the test significantly? IIRC a click occurs on mouse up.

Scratch that. I see that the Footer reacts to MouseDown, not Click.

I'm hoping that #6137 will provide a better solution to avoiding jank in the footer that doesn't introduce flakiness to the tests. |

I think #6137 resolves this. |

@willmcgugan Since this still doesn't look fixed, can I suggest at least trying this? [EDIT: Exploring this in new PR #6142] async with app.run_test() as pilot:
# Pause to ensure the footer is fully composed to avoid flakiness in CI
await pilot.pause(0.4)
await app.wait_for_refresh()
# Check clicking the footer brings up the quit screen
footer_key_clicked = await pilot.mouse_down("FooterKey")
assert footer_key_clicked is True # Sanity check
await pilot.pause()
assert isinstance(pilot.app.screen, QuitScreen) |
