Unexpected order of status changes for queries checked in multiple locations

[themagickoala]

Describe the bug

I am having an issue with upgrading to React Query v4.3.4 from v3.34.17 in my test suite. I have a utilty component which I use in a lot of my tests in order to wait for all queries to have settled by pulling query keys from the cache and passing them to useQueries. The issue is that the loading state of the queries in this useQueries call updates earlier than the loading state where the query itself was originally called (in useQuery in the component I'm trying to test).

I have tried to reproduce this in Code Sandbox with a minimal example, but the minimal example works as expected, so I'm sure there must be something else I'm doing that is causing this issue, and I was hoping to get some advice on where to start looking/whether this issue has been seen before.

The minimal scenario is that I have a component (First) which calls a query (useCharacters) and mounts a child component (Second) which itself calls another query (useMoreCharacters). The test mounts both First and my Loader component, and each component logs out the loading state. In the codesandbox, the order of logging is as expected:

• Loading in component
• Loading in child
• Loading in loader
• Loaded in child
• Loading in loader
• Loaded in component
• Loaded in child
• Loaded in loader

i.e. the Loader is the last to report the loaded state. However, in my codebase the Loader is the first to report the loaded state, and the DOM has updated (and the associated loaded text has been found) before the First component can update, which intermittently results in test failures.

Your minimal, reproducible example

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the minimal reproduction;
2. Open the console;
3. Review the order of logs.

Expected behavior

The code sandbox produces the expected behaviour, but in my codebase, the Loader is logging "Loaded" before the components do (and sometimes allows further code execution before the components log).

Additional context

I realise that the minimal reproduction has not reproduced the issue, and that I'm looking for guidance rather than demonstrating a bug. Feel free to move this to a Discussion if that would be more appropriate!
