How to pass in timeout for cucumber command as in

Question

After digging around for a few days for the launch issue, I found out if I use

start_test_server_in_background(:timeout => 300)

the app will be fully launched successfully.

So for calabash command, the question become, how to pass in the timeout for cucumber command line?

I tried the following for cucumber version 0.9.167 and it's not working.

$ CONNECT_TIMEOUT=300 DEBUG=1 CALABASH_FULL_CONSOLE_OUTPUT=1 cucumber

Answer 1

CONNECT_TIMEOUT <== controls how long to wait for the server to respond to an http request not how long it wait for a launch.

Update your features/support/01_launch.rb to use:

Calabash::Cucumber::Launcher.relaunch({:timeout => 300})

I am suspicious that it takes more than 30s to launch your app.

If at all possible update to latest version of calabash.

UPDATE: The calabash environment docs have been posted.

Beware of tweaking the variables in the Developer section.
