The test and its children

[simon.vergauwen]

Then I'm probably better of not using FreeSpec 😄

[sam]

It'll be the same for any nested test

[simon.vergauwen]

Okay I see. I am not creating new scopes with - correctly

[sam]

If the timeout is set at the spec level it applies separately to each test

[sam]

But the runtime of a test includes any nested tests of course

[simon.vergauwen]

Now you completely lost me

[simon.vergauwen]

It seems timeouts are applied to String.minus, but I don't want that

[simon.vergauwen]

I want every leaf to use the default timeout, or the one I configure for that spec.

[simon.vergauwen]

So I think I shouldn't be using FreeSpec. Maybe I should create my own spec in this case.

[sam]

What you need is a feature to only apply timeouts at leaf level

[simon.vergauwen]

Yes

[sam]

Ticket it up and I'll add it this weekend

[simon.vergauwen]

Any tips for quick fixing because I'm stuck 😅

[sam]

You could wrap the code in the leaf in a withTimeout

I split them of and turned them all into new `FreeScope`s for now.
