One of the issues we have with tests, are that some are expected to time out as expected conditions. However, these timeouts must wait for the full duration of the default timeout - which is usually 3 minutes - taking up valuable time on the machines.

As noted by :jmaher, in web-platform-tests alone there are ~460 manifest files that specify a TIMEOUT. If these all wait for 3 minutes each, then untold amount of processing time is being wasted.

objective

Reduce the timeout duration for tests with expected TIMEOUT outcomes.
