Konstantin Boudnik commented on HADOOP-6987:
--------------------------------------------

Effectively, you offer to have a common class which has to be extended instead 
of having an explicit statement like
{...@rule public MethodRule globalTimeout = new Timeout(10 * 1000);}} in each 
test class which needs to have a special timeout clause. I vouch that having an 
explicit {...@rule}} statement like above (if the same timeout applies for all 
class' cases) is clearer and doesn't require inheritance. 

I think it worth noting 
[here|http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToDevelopUnitTests] about best practices 
of timeout settings as soon as we'll agreed on the approach.

> Use JUnit Rule to optionally fail test cases that run more than 10 seconds

> Using JUnit Rules annotations we can fail tests cases that take longer than 
> 10 seconds (for instance) to run.  This provides a regression check against 
> test cases taking longer than they had previously due to unintended code 
> changes, as well as provides a membership criteria for unit tests versus 
> integration tests in HDFS and MR.
