Description
Having a test timeout is great (for things like test hangs), but its going to cause a lot of failed builds until we factor in the various flags that can cause tests to run longer, or enable longer-running tests.
Its hard to say what the limits should be since jenkins history is pretty limited at the moment (only 2 nightly runs history available)

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the test-timeout configuration and the handling of the nightly, multiplier, and clover flags. Review the limited Jenkins history to establish suitable timeout limits; done means timeouts are enabled without causing expected longer-running builds to fail.
