Elastic Synthetics uses a default action and navigation timeout of 50 seconds. You can override this default using [`actionTimeout`](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-testoptions#test-options-action-timeout) and [`navigationTimeout`](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-testoptions#test-options-navigation-timeout) in `playwrightOptions`.

Browser-based journeys have a timeout limit of 15 minutes.

When `retry` is enabled (enabled by default), the journey attempts a second run if the first run times out. This allows for a maximum total runtime of 30 minutes: 15 minutes for the first run and up to 15 minutes for the retry.

The Elastic global managed testing infrastructure does not currently set the timezone. For {{private-location}}s, the monitors will use the timezone of the host machine running the {{agent}}. This is not always desirable if you want to test how a web application behaves across different timezones. To specify what timezone to use when the monitor runs, you can use `playwrightOptions` on a per monitor or global basis.
