Getting synchronization right in a multi-process or multi-threaded program can be difficult. Running the same program with the same inputs can have different results if there is a race condition in the program, so testing is much more challenging. Likewise, debugging programs is tricky because it can sometimes to reproduce a problem. Can you find or think of any strategies that make it easier to get synchronization right?
