Starting from Mocha v3.0.0, calling ``++this.timeout(X)++`` with ``++X++`` greater than the https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setTimeout#Maximum_delay_value[maximum delay value] (2,147,483,647 ms) https://mochajs.org/#hook-level[will cause the timeout to be disabled]. This might not be what the developer intended. If the goal is really to disable the timeout, ``++this.timeout(0)++`` should be used instead.

== Noncompliant Code Example

----
|

describe("testing this.timeout", function() {
|
|
it("unexpectedly disables the timeout", function(done) {
|
|
this.timeout(2147483648); // Noncompliant
|
|
});

== Compliant Solution

----

describe("testing this.timeout", function() {

this.timeout(1000);

Or if you meant to disable the timeout

this.timeout(0);
