Maximum wait time allowed

We are running some experiment with our test case to test certain data propagation time in our application. I set a wait command for 300 seconds, but it appears in local run execution, the test only waited for 60 seconds as I verified with a stop watch, and also documented in the test timing in the screen shot below.

The question is: is 60 seconds the maximum wait time allowed/possible?  Is there anyway we can actually make test pause for more than 60 seconds other than maybe use 5 wait commands in a row?

Hi Dhrupa,

The 60 seconds is a maximum default, but as an admin, you can go to Administration > Account Preferences > Timeouts and change it from 60 seconds to 300 seconds (this will allow all users in the account to use Wait for up to 300 seconds).

This way, you do not need to use any additional Wait steps. Please let us know if there's anything else we can assist with.

After I made the adjustment, the wait step now generate an error about "step timeout", and when I try to adjust "Step time out limit" in admin menu, it said "Step time out cannot exceed 120s, is there anyway we can extend this to 300s?

Hi Dhrupa,

Can you try again now? It should work as expected.
