timeout Step Modifier

timeout: duration

The amount of time to limit the step's execution to, e.g. 30m for 30 minutes.

When exceeded, the step will be interrupted, with the same semantics as aborting the build (except the build will be errored, not aborted, to distinguish between human intervention and timeouts being enforced).

Giving up

The following will run the unit task and cancel it if it takes longer than 1 hour and 30 minutes:

plan:
  - get: foo
  - task: unit
    file: foo/unit.yml
    timeout: 1h30m
