 * `invocations` - the number of times to run this test. Useful if you have a non-deterministic test and you want to run that particular test a set number of times. Defaults to 1.
 * `threads` - Allows the invocation of this test to be parallelized by setting the number of threads to use in a thread pool executor for this test. If invocations is 1 (the default) then this parameter will have no effect. Similarly, if you set invocations to a value less than or equal to the number threads, then each invocation will have its own thread.
 * `ignored` - If set to true then this test is ignored. Can be useful if a test needs to be temporarily disabled.
-* `timeout` / `timeoutUnit` - sets a timeout for this test. If the test has not finished in that time then the test fails. Useful for code that is non-deterministic and might not finish.
+* `timeout` - sets a timeout for this test. If the test has not finished in that time then the test fails. Useful for code that is non-deterministic and might not finish. Timeout is of type `Duration` which can be instantiated like `2.seconds`, `3.minutes` and so on.
 * `tag` / `tags` - a list of String tags that can be set on a test. Then by invoking the test runner with a system property of testTags, you can control which tests are run. For example, tests that require a linux based O/S might be tagged with "linux" then gradle could be invoked with gradle test -DtestTags=linux. Another example might be tagging database tags that you only want to run on a server that has a database installed. Any test that has no tags is always run.
