I am using supertest to test some basic route endpoints. I have the problem that if I use multiple tests in the same suite, I get time out error.

    thrown: "Exceeded timeout of 5000 ms for a test.
    Add a timeout value to this test to increase the timeout, if this is a long-running test. See https://jestjs.io/docs/api#testname-fn-timeout."

I tried multiple methods but I can’t understand why I cannot use multiple tests in the same testing suite…

Personally I don’t think increasing the timeout is a solution. But I can be mistaken easily because is the first time i am using testing…

describe('Test create user', () => {
    it('POST - /signup fail test', async () => {
        const newUser = {
            password: 'passw',
            email: '[email protected]',
            username: 'username'
        };
        const response = await request(app)
            .post('/api/signup')
            .send(newUser);
        expect(response.status).toBe(400);
        expect(response.body.error).toMatch(/Password must be at least 10 characters long/);
    });


    it('POST - /signup positive', async () => {
        const newUser = {
            password: 'password1234',
            email: '[email protected]',
            username: 'username'
        };
        const response = await request(app)
            .post('/api/signup')
            .send(newUser);

        expect(response.status).toBe(500);
        expect(response.body.error).toMatch(/Password must be at least 10 characters long/);
    });
});

In the code above I tested firstly a falied attempt to create a user. Next, I want to test a success case.
