    Description

      We see regular autocomplete behat failures:

      002 Scenario: Adding a user to multiple groups               # /var/www/html/moodle/enrol/tests/behat/add_to_group.feature:26
            And I click on "Group 2" item in the autocomplete list # /var/www/html/moodle/enrol/tests/behat/add_to_group.feature:34
              WebDriver\Exception\StaleElementReference: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document
                (Session info: chrome=61.0.3163.100)
                (Driver info: chromedriver=2.33.506092 (733a02544d189eeb751fe0d7ddca79a0ee28cce4),platform=Linux 4.4.0-97-generic x86_64) in /var/www/html/moodle/vendor/instaclick/php-webdriver/lib/WebDriver/Exception.php:155
              Stack trace:
              #0 /var/www/html/moodle/vendor/instaclick/php-webdriver/lib/WebDriver/AbstractWebDriver.php(157): WebDriver\Exception::factory(10, 'stale element r...')
      

      These stale elements are essentially race conditions between behat (slow moving) and our JS (faster but obstructed by server).
