My end goal is to have a button on my website (dashboard created in React) which allows me to run a Selenium test (written in python).
I am using socket.io in hopes that I can stream test results live back to dashboard, but I seem to be hitting some sort of time limit at about 29 seconds.
To debug I made this test case, which completes on the server side, but my connection is severed before emit('test_progress', 29) happens.
from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_socketio import SocketIO, join_room, emit
import time
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = 'secret!'
socketio = SocketIO(app)
@socketio.on('run_test')
def handle_run_test(run_test):
print('received run_test')
for x in range(1, 30):
time.sleep(1)
print(x)
emit('test_progress', x)
time.sleep(1)
print('TEST FINISHED')
emit('test_finished', {'data':None})
if __name__ == '__main__':
socketio.run(app, debug=True)
(Some of) my JavaScript
import settings from './settings.js';
import io from 'socket.io-client';
const socket = io(settings.socketio);
socket.on('test_progress', function(data){
console.log(data);
});
My console in browser

Eventually, I'll have a test running that could take 40-60 seconds instead of the arbitrary time.sleep(1) calls, so I would like the function to be able to use more than 29 seconds. Am I going about this wrong or is there a way to change this time limit?
