1. Provide a general summary of the issue in the Title above

For PSCore6, we've had to create a custom test function so that tests don't hang during execution (eventually timing out in CI).

It would be ideal if It had a parameter to specify -Timeoutms and fail the test case.

2. Describe Your Environment

Operating System, Pester version and PowerShell version:

Pester version     : 4.1.1 /Users/steve/.local/share/powershell/Modules/Pester/4.1.1/Pester.psm1
PowerShell version : 6.0.1
OS version         : Unix 17.4.0.0

3. Expected Behavior

It "Timeout test" -Timeoutms 500 {
  Start-Sleep -Seconds 1
}

# this should result in the test failing due to timeout, aftereach/afterall should still be called, applies to individual test cases

4.Current Behavior

Need to implement custom timeout function and use it everywhere applicable

5. Possible Solution

In PSCore6.1 we may be able to add -Timeout to Invoke-Command, but for compatibility reasons, you may use something like the custom function we have above.

6. Context

Usually webcmdlet tests that need to call external URLs cause problems if the web server doesn't respond. Although the webcmdlets themselves have a timeout, this affects the code logic and what is actually being tested.
