Additional information

Retries eventually succeed so I'm pretty sure this is a race condition with another test that opens the inspector

This should be fixed by #58799. It's on the v22.x-staging branch, pending the next Node.js 22 release.

The fix has been released in v22.18.0 so I guess we can close it
