Enable the test framework to have a property per test "maximum allowed time to run". Default to unlimited if not set.
The test framework should abort a test with a distinct failure when the time is exceeded.
Reason;
Switching to 2019 Wave 2 we have experienced some hard to find issues that ultiomately resulted in two infinite loops in our solution. The root cause is most likely a git merge issue where we lost a line of code. No big deal in itself, but this raises an interesting challenge for CI/CD... all we saw in test runs inside and outside of build pipelines was an out-of-memory exception which is extremely hard to debug or pin down otherwise.
Also, if we had that property we could use it to catch unexpected changes in overall performance of a tested functionality quite efficiently, too.
