Make jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL configurable

[tonekk]

5 seconds can be really annoying if you have many test cases that fail.

I'm not sure what would be the best option to accomplish this, but I imagine a configurable option in package.json. Something like defaultTimeoutInterval, which would then be passed to jasmine used.

Steps:

• Pass jest json config to jasmine file (not sure how)
• Change jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL to jestConfig.defaultTimeoutInterval || 5000

I think it is enough to set this on a per-test level. This already works. If you need it in every test you can set it in the setup-env file.

@cpojer Where / how?

[cpojer]

Sorry, I mean the setupFiles config option: http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/api.html#setupfiles-array

[hakunin]

Thanks for the clarification. I my setupfile, I tried setting jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL but it says Jasmine isn't there. I ended up putting the line in the test itself.

I can only access jasmine from "setupTestFrameworkScriptFile".

[cpojer]

Phew, I'm sorry again. setupFiles actually runs before we set-up jasmine. We have setupTestFrameworkScriptFile which runs after jasmine and before your test.

These docs apparently don't exist anymore. How can I configure that timeout interval in the current version?

[cpojer]

Somebody should send a PR for jest.setTestTimeout(time) so we have an official forward-looking API for this.

May I suggest improving the API reference and troubleshooting section in the docs to indicate that Jasmine's it has an optional timeout third argument?
(willing to do that PR if you want)

While this issue is closed, I just ran into it as well, and couldn't figure out a solution. Nothing in here nor in #896 helped.

Specifically, adding jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL = 10000; to the file configured as setupTestFrameworkScriptFile resulted in Cannot find module 'jasmine' from 'testSetup.js'

to indicate that Jasmine's it has an optional timeout third argument?

I tried that, too, but it didn't make any difference.

@jzaefferer Add it to the test file itself

[sudhanshuraheja]

5000 works well as a global config, if you want to change the timeout for a specific test, please do this

test("test an API which takes time", () => {

    doYourThing()

}, 10000)

@sudhanshuraheja thanks, that works ;) although I found a way to avoid doing that altogether
