What are some effective tools for managing test timeouts?

There are several tools you can use to manage test timeouts effectively, such as TestNG, JUnit, and Cypress. Each has its own features for handling timeouts.

Can you explain how to set timeouts in JUnit?

In JUnit, you can set a timeout by using the @Test(timeout=milliseconds) annotation. This will fail the test if it takes longer than the specified time.

What about Cypress? How does it handle timeouts?

Cypress has built-in timeout settings that you can configure in the cypress.json file. You can set global timeouts for commands and assertions.

Are there any best practices for managing timeouts in automated tests?

Yes, some best practices include setting reasonable timeout values, using retries for flaky tests, and ensuring your tests are optimized for performance.
