add timeout as failsafe for dependency not loading #463

Closed dstorey closed 6 years ago

dstorey commented 8 years ago

There is a call to whichbrowser which is currently down. As there is a wait() function, this never resolves and stays in waiting state. Would be nice to have a timeout after a certain length of time and continue on its merry way if the server doesn't respond.

As the backlist depends on browser detection, I am afraid that I can't just let the test run without it. But what I am probably going do is either install WhichBrowser locally as a failsafe. Or find a way to have a backup server for WhichBrowser itself.

I'll revisit this after the upcoming release of version 8.
