time.monotonic() instead of datetime.now().timestamp() at __ping_start_time, and
calculate the round-trip delta from the same monotonic clock in on_heartbeat().
- Line 366: Update the ping request flow around send_protocol_message and the
shared in_flight future so send failures complete the shared future with the
actual exception before cleanup, rather than cancelling it and producing a false
timeout message. Handle cancellation of the initiating caller separately,
preserving existing timeout behavior, and add a regression test covering
concurrent waiters during a send failure.

…ceed Once a ping timed out, ConnectionManager.ping() left the cancelled future in place, so every subsequent call awaited it and failed immediately with "Ping request cancelled due to request timeout" for the life of the client, even though the connection was healthy. A ping rejected for being in an invalid state left an unresolved future behind in the same way, making the next ping hang. Track each ping's pending heartbeat by its own id (RTN13e) and remove it in a finally block, so success, timeout, send failure and cancellation all clean up and concurrent pings are independent. Measure the round trip with a monotonic clock and fix the swapped code/status on the invalid-state error.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Implement one shared in-flight heartbeat.
__pending_pings stores a separate future for each ping_id, so every concurrent caller sends its own HEARTBEAT. This does not implement the shared-heartbeat objective and increases protocol traffic. Store one in-flight request and await it with asyncio.shield. Add a wire-level assertion that concurrent calls send one heartbeat.

This is good but it looks like a dropped connection doesn't fail the ping immediately, instead it will fail after the realtime_request_timeout, probably worth fixing that now

Problem
ping()timed out,ConnectionManager.ping()left the cancelled future in place. Every laterping()awaited it and failed instantly withPing request cancelled due to request timeout(504/50003) for the life of the client, although the connection was healthy (PUB-3865: a client pinging every 5 s hit one lost heartbeat echo during a server-side connection move and logged this on every ping until restart).ping()rejected for being in an invalid state also left an unresolved future behind, so the nextping()after connecting hung forever.Noneinstead of the round trip time.code=400,status_code=40000).Fix
ping()tracks its own pending heartbeat by id (RTN13e; same model as ably-js), so there is no shared state to poison or shield. Concurrent pings each send a heartbeat and are matched by their own echo.finally, so success, timeout, send failure and caller cancellation all clean up.time.monotonic().code=40000,status_code=400; existing tests updated.Tests
test_realtime_request_timeout_pingnow also checks that the next ping succeeds after a timeout.test/ably/realtimerun locally against sandbox: TESTS_PLACEHOLDER.ruff checkclean.Summary by CodeRabbit
