hanging when I use --time-methid=signal

i am making a unittest, `for index, test_case in enumerate(test_cases[start_case_index:], start=start_case_index): test_case_name = test_case.split("::")[-1] print(f"Running {test_case_name}")

    pytest.main(['-v', '--tb=short', '--capture=no', '--timeout=20', '--timeout-method=signal', test_case], plugins=[recorder])

    result_data = recorder.results.get(test_case)
    if result_data is None:
        result_data = {
            "outcome": "not executed",
            "duration": 0,
            "timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat()
        }`

above is my test code, if one case is out of time, the process will hang and show log like below and would not break out to next test case,what shoukd I do? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Timeout ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
