From: Simon McVittie Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2016 08:23:36 +0100 Subject: Terminate individual tests after half an hour While using the Automake parallel test harness, if a test hangs for long enough for an external watchdog to kill the entire build process (as happens in Debian sbuild after 150 minutes with no activity on stdout/stderr), the logs will not be shown. If we make an individual test time out sooner, logs are more likely to be shown.
