Description

Hello, I get different results when running this example on playground or on my local Robot Framework installation:

*** Test Cases ***
Test
    [Timeout]    2s
    Sleep    10s

Playground shows itimer_error: [Errno 52] Function not implemented, while the expected error is Test timeout 2 seconds exceeded.

Start by running the linked playground example with the shown 2-second timeout and compare its output with a local Robot Framework installation. Trace where the playground reports the itimer_error and determine what would make this example display the expected timeout message.
