Is there a way to declare a timeout period using NUnit?

I would like to be able to fail the test if the execution code hangs. Is there a way to do this currently?

I think something like the following should exist, but I cannot find it in the API

[Test, Timeout(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2))]
public void Test() { ...}

Are you using NUnit 2.5 ? A TimeoutAttribute was added in NUnit 2.5, which does exactly what you want, although you specify the timeout in milliseconds. See the release notes .

AFAIK there's nothing built into NUnit that will do this, but it should be easy enough to do with DateTimes (or performance counters if you want higher resolution timers) ...
