Even setting max_runtime is an ugly hack here because the test itself is 
nearly instant. The setup() function is what actually times out. But 
there's currently no way to change the default 30 second timeout 
allocated for setup() and cleanup(). It'd be much better if I could set 
that setup() has unlimited timeout and the test itself is limited to 5 
seconds.
