How do I handle timeout errors in my tests?

Timeout errors in tests usually indicate that a test is taking too long to complete. You can handle them by increasing the timeout duration, optimizing the code being tested, or using asynchronous testing methods.

What are some common causes of timeout errors?

Common causes include network issues, inefficient code, or waiting for resources that are not available. Identifying the bottleneck is key.

How can I optimize my tests to avoid these errors?

You can optimize tests by reducing dependencies, using mocks or stubs, and ensuring that your code is efficient and well-structured.

Are there specific tools to help with timeout errors?

Yes, tools like Jest, Mocha, or Cypress have built-in features to manage timeouts and provide better error reporting.
