Description
This subtask is to implement temporary retry logic to get additional info for parent bug:
- retry the WaitForEvent();
- if it fails, try to detach and attach again
The functionality should still return error if WaitForEvent failed (so we can get results of thi on next test failure)

Comments
It's possible to test the approaches without pushing the changes in the repo.
