[BUG] ECONNRESET in smoke tests #6793
Description
Current Behavior
The smoke test added in #6781 is failing (flaky) in Node 18 on macOS with ECONNRESET errors. This could be due to the new @npmcli/agent. I have not been able to reproduce this issue not in the smoke tests so I'm currently not sure of the severity of the issue.
The main difference in smoke tests is that they are calling npm via @npmcli/promise-spawn instead of directly. This is just a note and I'm not sure yet of its relevance.
Example of a flaky test run: https://github.com/npm/cli/actions/runs/6149382937/job/16685141474
Expected Behavior
The smoke tests pass without flakiness.
