Research direction

Start with the test_apps/first_example_py test and review the assertion described in the issue, using the linked GitHub Actions run for the failure context. Update the test so it accounts for the observed aggregate counter output, then rerun the test to confirm it no longer flakes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This test is flakey
https://github.com/microsoft/jrt-controller/actions/runs/16405622793/job/46351087525

because, the assertion is looking for "Aggregate counter so far is: 15" twice however, the second time may sometimes produce "Aggregate counter so far is: 20" instead.
