You can set a timeout for a before hook in Mocha.js by using the this.timeout() function within the hook. Here is an example of how you can set a timeout for a before hook:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
before(function() {
    // Set timeout for 2 seconds
    this.timeout(2000);

    // Your before hook code here
    // This code will run before each test case with a timeout of 2 seconds
});


In the above example, the this.timeout(2000) function sets a timeout of 2 seconds for the before hook. You can adjust the timeout value according to your requirements. Remember that the timeout value is in milliseconds.


Additionally, you can also set a timeout for individual before hooks by using the this.timeout() function inside those hooks.
