Changes
Benefits
Configuration
MAX_RETRIES: Number of retry attempts (default: 3)BASE_RETRY_DELAY: Base delay in seconds for exponential backoff (default: 30)Testing
Validated with intentional failure scenarios including:
The retry mechanism successfully recovers from transient failures while failing fast on persistent issues.
