Functions in testutil are commented out

[bogdanpetrea]

I would like to disable the client caching in some of my tests as it doesn't always seem to reflect the latest resource changes and it really gets in the way.

If I use a new client I can see the latest changes as expected so I assume it's a caching thing. But If I use a different client from the one that the test manager uses, they will always be unsynced, so it's still a caching problem.

It seemed like these functions might help me in disabling the cache, although I'm not sure it's possible. Any clue why they are commented?

I'm not even sure why they're still there -- they should be removed.

For tests, the recommendation is just to do
"sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime/pkg/client".New(...) for use in the actual test methods (which will get you a non-caching client). Would that solve your issue, or are you trying to have your actual controllers use a non-caching client?
