The shell version of the test was completed only after all DNS zone
updates were sent, even if the BIND server crashed while processing
them, leading to prolonged execution and potential hang in the CI

tasks finish within five minutes of starting, irrespective of a BIND
crash possibility or DNS zone updates not finishing in time.
