Expected Behavior

Test results should be deterministic

behavior

After local debugging, I found that running eth_getCode_4 and eth_getCode_9 simultaneously causes this issue. (Test method: skip other test cases and only keep 4 and 9, then execute jest tests/e2e/src/eth_getCode.test.js).

troubleshooting

Axon Problem Localization By executing the following shell script, it is observed that the eth_getCode interface behaves as expected. It does not exhibit problems when first called with the latest block height as a parameter and then immediately followed by a call with an invalid parameter.
```
response=$(curl -s http://localhost:8000 -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params": [],"id":1}')
blockNumber=$(echo $response | jq -r '.result')
```

curl -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getCode","params":["0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266", "'"$blockNumber"'"],"id":1}' \ http://localhost:8000

curl -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getCode","params":["0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266", ""],"id":2}' \ http://localhost:8000

``` json
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":"0x","id":1}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"code":-32602,"message":"Invalid params","data":"Invalid block number: missing 0x prefix at line 1 column 3"},"id":2}

MetaMask Problem Localization I downloaded MetaMask version 10.31.0, which is the default version used in the e2e tests, and then manually entered the parameters for eth_getCode_4 and eth_getCode_9 on http://localhost:8080/eth_getCode.html. The behavior observed was as expected.

Therefore, combining points 1 and 2, we can make a preliminary judgment: Normal use of MetaMask does not cause issues; the problem may lie with the testing framework.

Problem Resolution To facilitate the observation of the parameters passed to MetaMask during the execution of different test cases, I introduced a delay of a few seconds after each test case execution. I incidentally discovered that when there is a longer interval (about 30 seconds) between eth_getCode_4 and eth_getCode_9, the test results align with expectations. This might be because MetaMask has a bug when handling rapid, consecutive executions. By continuously adjusting the waiting time after executing eth_getCode_4, I found that 20 seconds is the threshold.
