I've had very inconsistent results using the Windows 'timeout' command. There appear to multiple versions. Some give an error message "Type "TIMEOUT /?" for usage.", (Windows 10) others a error message "Try 'timeout --help' for more information." (Windows 2016) And in some cases, it does not appear to wait the entire time requested and one of the test fails. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5239
