I think both ways should be okay. I thought the proposed way is okay
because it is used in more than one place and is probably slightly
easier to follow by having a separate variable.

Yes, the main part is how to write a stable test because estimating
how many changes are enough for the configured wal_receiver_timeout to
pass on all the buildfarm machines is tricky. Also, I am not sure how
important is to test this behavior because based on this theory we
should have tests for all kinds of timeouts.
