No option to no_output_timeout on run-tests

[ghost]

When executing a long running test using cypress/run-tests on CircleCI, I am often finding that I get the error Too long with no output (exceeded 10m0s): context deadline exceeded. After looking online I saw that there used to be a timeout command which had a default timeout of 10 minutes (the test often goes to 10-15 mins) which could be overridden (#125). Could this be added to cypress/run-tests?

The orb does not work as expected

• what version of the orb are you currently using? cypress-io/cypress@3.1.2
• describe what you think should happen: timeout option should be available when running tests
• describe what happens: Error thrown after 10 minutes, no step information is being output - Too long with no output (exceeded 10m0s): context deadline exceeded

Any progress on this?

You should be able to specify this yourself on your job itself. Have you given this a try @JP-MAT ?

I've tried both timeout and no_output_timeout and received the errors

Error calling command: 'cypress/run-tests'
Unexpected argument(s): no_output_timeout

Error calling command: 'cypress/run-tests'
Unexpected argument(s): timeout  

This used to exist as part of the 'run' job as the timeout property as far as I can tell

But there doesn't seem to be anything like it on the run-tests command or run job

Any update for this?

The change should be fairly trivial
