Hello, upstream uses "mocha" to launch its test. mocha always uses a timeout, default to 2s, which is a little short. mocha is widely used in node modules and we often have to increase timeout. I didn't find other ways to fix these FTBFS than: - increasing timeout in each package (this is what we did in many packages) - rewriting the whole tests with another framework (bad idea I think) - increasing timeout in mocha sources (only when used in Debian build to not pollute normal use of mocha, using for example an environment variable?) I think we don't have this kind of generic problems with other test framework (tap,...) but maybe other JS-Team members have another idea?
