OpenAI client retries 429 causing unnecessary test delay

Low Severity

OpenAI(api_key="z") uses the default max_retries=2, so when the mock returns a 429 response, the OpenAI client will automatically retry twice with exponential backoff (~1.5 seconds of sleeping) before finally raising RateLimitError. The old test called _failure_callback directly and had no such delay. Creating the client with max_retries=0 would avoid unnecessary retries and keep the test fast.
