Right, I see (maybe add a comment in the test).

>poll()). May be i can remove "SRVSENT" as sleep is enough.

I think it's fine.

An alternative could be to use the `timeout` of poll():

client:                        server:
waits for "SRVSENT"
                                send 1 byte
                                send "SRVSENT"
poll(, timeout = 1 * 1000)
                                wait for "CLNSENT"
poll should return 0
send "CLNSENT"

poll(, timeout = 10 * 1000)
...
poll sleeps
...
                                send rest of data
poll wake up


I don't have a strong opinion, also your version seems fine, just an 
alternative ;-)

Maybe in your version you can add a 10 sec timeout to poll, to avoid 
that the test stuck for some reason (failing if the timeout is reached).
