Hello,

From the earlier 2 days we are facing time out issue. while running applications test it is taking long time to complete the tests. we are having this error ‘command ./vendor/bin/phpunit took more than 120 minutes to run’. as it is taking more then 2 hours to run the tests.  
Please help me out for this ASAP.

Thanks and Regards  
Vivek Mahajan

(Tip: “ASAP” and other phrases intend to hurry answerers are [not always well-received](https://meta.stackoverflow.com/a/326590/472495) in tech communities. That link is for Stack Overflow, but I think it generalises quite well over the web.)

How long do your tests take to run presently? What are you doing in them that takes so long? Can you speed them up, or can they be parallelised?
