HBASE-13591 tried to address this issue.  It did improve the pass rate in Linux environment (after the fix, I could not repro in my machine); however, the test still failed intermittently in Windows environment during testing of 1.1 release.

Looking at the code, it uses the ExponentialBackoffPolicy (starting with 200ms sleep time after first failed attempt to acquire the lock in ZK, then 400ms, then 800ms, etc.) in between retries.  Therefore, even the first hbck run completes, the second hbck run would still fail due to long sleep time.  

the proposal to fix the problem is to use ExponentialBackoffPolicyWithLimit and cap the max sleep time to some small number (eg. 5 seconds, it should be configurable).  This would make the test more robust.
