@alvinlal I found the solution. You can add jest.setTimeout(10000) anywhere to test-db-setup.js to increase the Jest's default timeout.

@alvinlal did you find out what was causing this? I'm getting this same error

[alvinlal]

@brunogonzales the problem was because of the default timeout value of jest which is 5000ms.That is any test that takes more than 5000ms will be failed.You can change the default value to a higher value to solve this problem.But i am not sure how to do that as i have no experience with jest.

So you never ended up passing the tests?

[alvinlal]

@brunogonzales some test passed and some didn't.I tried to create a jest configuration file and set the default timeout value but that didnt work,let me know if you find any fix,

@brunogonzales Thanks so much!
