Workaround for not working pytest-timeout

aivanf_timeout.py

import asyncio
import functools

import pytest


def aivanf_timeout(timeout: float = 60):
    def inner(func):
        @functools.wraps(func)
        async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            return await asyncio.wait_for(func(*args, **kwargs), timeout=timeout)

        return wrapper

    return inner


def setup_aivanf_timeout():
    """
    IDK why, by pytest-timeout doesn't work in some Python versions.
    https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-timeout/issues/113
    """
    pytest.mark.timeout = aivanf_timeout

Just copy the file to your project, call setup_aivanf_timeout() in your conftest.py, and use @pytest.mark.timeout(_N_) on your tests. Actually, the pytest-timeout lib isn't even needed to be installed, although my approach only works for async coroutines (and not for sync functions).

License: MIT, also I'd be glad to see your feedback here 😁 If this would be helpful to many people, I can publish it as a standalone lib on PyPI.
