How do you handle non-deterministic tests in automation, where results vary due to factors like network latency, third-party services, or data issues? Any patterns or strategies to ensure test reliability?

Automation often faces challenges with non-deterministic tests, where external factors like network latency, third-party services, or data inconsistencies cause varying results. These flakiness issues can undermine test reliability and make debugging difficult.

What approaches do you use to stabilize such tests? Are there any patterns or strategies you recommend to reduce flakiness and improve overall reliability?
