Timeout default is incorrect, 200ms instead of 2000ms

[juergba]

Prerequisites

• Checked that your issue hasn't already been filed by cross-referencing issues with the faq label
• Checked next-gen ES issues and syntax problems by using the same environment and/or transpiler configuration without Mocha to ensure it isn't just a feature that actually isn't supported in the environment in question or a bug in your code.
• 'Smoke tested' the code to be tested by running it outside the real test suite to get a better sense of whether the problem is in the code under test, your usage of Mocha, or Mocha itself
• Ensured that there is no discrepancy between the locally and globally installed versions of Mocha. You can find them with: node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version(Local) and mocha --version(Global). We recommend avoiding the use of globally installed Mocha.

Description

The timeout default value is set differently in the master branch and my local Mocha V5.2.0

describe('suite1', function () {
  console.log(this._timeout);
});

Output master branch: 200
Output my local Mocha: 2000

Many integration test are failing for that reason. These tests do pass correctly when using the flag --timeout=2000

Steps to Reproduce

Expected behavior: default timeout should be 2000ms

Actual behavior: default timeout is 200ms

Reproduces how often: always

Versions

• The output of mocha --version and node node_modules/.bin/mocha --version: master branch
• The output of node --version: V10.5.0
• The version and architecture of your operating system: windows 10 Home 1809
• Your shell (bash, zsh, PowerShell, cmd, etc.): cmd of VSCode
• Your browser and version (if running browser tests):
• Any other third party Mocha related modules (with versions):
• The code transpiler being used:

Which integration test(s) fail? Specific set (e.g., test.node.integration) from "package-scripts"?

[juergba]

for example: they all do work with --timeout=2000

• test\integration\timeout.spec.js
• test\integration\options.spec.js
• test\integration\hooks.spec.js
• test\integration\hook-err.spec.js
• test\integration\retries.spec.js

[juergba]

In mocha.opts timeout is set to 200ms. When I start tests manually some fail because of a timeout error.

How did you run tests?
For integration tests, timeout is 5000ms.

[juergba]

Yes, running the tests with the package script, then timeout is 5000ms. Running some individual tests/spec files manually as the ones listed above, then timeout is 200ms.

[outsideris]

You can run them with test.node.integration and exclusive-tests.
