Description Cathy Shen 2015-06-01 13:50:20 UTC

imagetest might need enhanced to do error handling, like:

i.fail-safe to handle exception of DUT hang.
ii.Case level time out mechanism.

To make this requirement more clear, split it into 2. This one is used to track the timeout requirements.

Timeout decorator merged into master: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=ad0aa8d548e21e6e262c4b0d9fe7eb72b1b2c24f

I had tested this decorator, it can raise a TimeOut Exception when my test case's exec time is great than timeout seconds.
