The job was holding the runner for hours on every push and pull request.
On 2026-08-18 it ran 3h12m, and because the runner is sequential it kept
frontend-e2e queued behind it for that whole time.
It is not a slow suite. That run executed 89 tests in 87 seconds, then
logged "Jest did not exit one second after the test run has completed"
and sat there until something killed it — an open handle keeping the
event loop alive after the run finishes. The same run also failed with
relation "orders" does not exist, so the schema was missing in CI even
though globalSetup migrates. Neither is root-caused yet; both follow the
job into its new home.
So the new workflow carries a 15-minute timeout. The suite needs about
90 seconds, so this is not a performance budget — it is a stop that turns
a post-run hang into minutes of wasted runner time rather than hours.
Tests.yml keeps a comment saying where the job went, so its absence reads
as deliberate rather than as something lost in an edit.
