Having the option to specify a timeout is obviously useful, but please add the ability to wait indefinitely, and consider making this the default behavior. The appropriate value for a timeout, if any, will always be a function of the particular circumstances of the test run. An indefinite wait at least gives one the opportunity to investigate a misbehaving test without racing the test harness. > +DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_SECS = 500 The change description says the default is five minutes, but this is not five minutes :-) -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
