'use strict';

/*
 * This is a regression test for https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7722.
 *
 * When nested timers have the same timeout, calling clearTimeout on the
 * older timer after it has fired causes the list the newer timer is in
 * to be deleted. Since the newer timer was not cleared, it still blocks
 * the event loop completing for the duration of its timeout, however, since
 * no reference exists to it in its list, it cannot be canceled and its
 * callback is not called when the timeout elapses.
