Timeout

[silentorb]

The documentation says "When an asynchronous test runs for more than timeout ms, the runner will abort it and emit a test:timeout event."

That implies test:timeout will not affect synchronous tests. However, when I extend the timeout property the test pauses for that length of time even if the test is synchronous. This is also the case when I use when.js promises that successfully resolve.

var buster = require("buster");
var assert = buster.referee.assert;
var when = require('when');

buster.testCase("Simple test", {
    setUp: function () {
        this.timeout = 10000;
    },
    "always true": function () {
        assert(true);
    },
    "using promises": function () {
        var def = when.defer();
        setTimeout(function () {
            assert(true);
            def.resolve();
        }, 10);
        return def.promise;
    }
});

When I run "always true" or "using promises" either individually or together, the tester will pause for ten seconds.

This is with Buster 0.7.11.

That's strange. I can't reproduce this weird behaviour, neither with buster 0.7.11 nor with 0.7.13. Can you please reinstall buster and try again? Do you use a local or global installation of buster and on which OS? What does your buster.js file look like and how do you run your tests?

I'm using both a global and local install of buster on WIndows 7. I uninstalled and reinstalled it both globally and locally and that has seemed to fix the problem, so something must have gone wrong with my files.

Thank you for your time!
