getTimeTaken units?

For TestRunner.getTimeTaken() the description says: "Returns the time taken by this runner since its last start" What are the units??? I assumed it would be milliseconds, but that does not seem to be ...

Hi,

The function returns the time elapsed in milliseconds testrunner has been running.

I ran the following code in a Groovy test step:


log.info "testRunner.timeTaken = ${testRunner.timeTaken}";

while (true)
{
 
if(testRunner.timeTaken > 20 * 60 * 1000) {
   testRunner.fail("${context.testCase.name} too long to find valid current issue!");
  break;
}

}

log.info "testRunner.timeTaken =  ${testRunner.timeTaken}";
log.info "done";


This was logged:

Wed Mar 12 14:06:45 EDT 2014:INFO:testRunner.timeTaken = 170
Wed Mar 12 14:26:45 EDT 2014:ERROR:Failed with reason [base64_encode_decode too long to find valid current issue!]
Wed Mar 12 14:26:45 EDT 2014:INFO:testRunner.timeTaken = 1200017
Wed Mar 12 14:26:45 EDT 2014:INFO:done

1200017 in milliseconds is 20 minutes which is how long testrunner is suppose to run before failing.
