Is there a way to declare timeout period with NUnit?

I would like to be able to fail the test if the executing code hangs. Is there a way to do this currently?

I am thinking something like the following must exist, but I can't seem to find it in the API

[Test, Timeout(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2))]
public void Test() { ...}

Are you using NUnit 2.5? A TimeoutAttribute was added in NUnit 2.5 that does exactly what you want, though you specify the timeout in milliseconds. See the release notes.

AFAIK there's nothing built into NUnit that'll do this but it should be easy enough to do with DateTime (or performance counters if you're wanting higher resolution timers)...
