Global: define default timeouts

[Niceplace]

I see in the documentation in expect-puppeteer :

timeout maximum time to wait for in milliseconds. Defaults to 500.

However, I'd like to be able to set the default value globally, do you think this could be possible ?
I haven't found an official way to set it even in puppeteer :(

Puppeteer has a partial solution with page.setDefaultNavigationTimeout() but it only has effect on a subset of the functions exposed by puppeteer: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/blob/master/docs/api.md#pagesetdefaultnavigationtimeouttimeout

It would be amazing if we could have control over a global timeout variable for

• expect-puppeteer
• puppeteer

An example to illustrate my point:

describe('A test with login in page objects', () => {

  beforeAll(async () => {
     // Have function attached to page reference ?
      await page.setGlobalTimeout(30000); 
  });

  it('should display "Google" text on page', async () => {
      await page.goto('https://google.com'); // Would use 30 seconds timeout instead of puppeteer default
      await expect(page).toMatch('Google'); // Would use 30 seconds timeout instead of 500ms
  });
});

Update : Ooops, I see that this is supported in expect-puppeteer https://github.com/smooth-code/jest-puppeteer/blob/master/packages/expect-puppeteer/README.md#configure-default-options.

However, I still would like to know if this propagates to native puppeteer functions as well or if its just used for the functions exposed by expect-puppeteer.

It is only used in expect-puppeteer methods. I don't know if Puppeteer provides the same system or not, if not I suggest you to post an issue on Puppeteer project. On our side we already have it.
