Xamarin TestCloud timeout defaults

Question

I am writing UITests and can't find the default values for the timeouts. Does anyone know how long the default timeouts are both locally and on Xamarin TestCloud?

I have tried Google, but havent had any luck.

Did I understand correctly that if I change them that I overwrite both local and cloud values?

Answer 1

By default, UITests waits up to 15 seconds for tests running locally, and one minute for tests running in App Center before throwing the TimeoutException. If you specify a different wait time, that will override the default, and apply to both local & App Center tests.

If you want to change the timeout.

app.WaitForElement(c=>c.Marked("success_message_label"),
                   "Did not see the success message.",
                   new TimeSpan(0,0,0,90,0));
