8-8: Valid fix, but consider investigating the root cause.The
test.setTimeout(180_000)syntax and placement are correct. However, 180 seconds is 6× the typical default timeout (30s), which suggests there may be an underlying performance issue worth investigating.A few considerations:
- Is the
get-exchange-ratesAPI call (line 18) consistently slow, or only intermittently?- Could specific
waitForoptions with targeted timeouts on slow operations be more precise than extending the entire test timeout?- A large global timeout can mask regressions if the test starts taking even longer in the future.
If this is a known environmental constraint (e.g., slow CI runners or external service latency), this change is acceptable. Otherwise, consider profiling the test to identify the bottleneck.

Verify each finding against the current code and only fix it if needed. In `@tests/playwright/e2e/manager/currency-exchange.spec.ts` at line 8, You increased the global test timeout via test.setTimeout(180_000) which masks a potential underlying slowness (see the get-exchange-rates API call referenced around the get-exchange-rates use on line 18); instead of keeping a blanket 180s timeout, investigate whether the getExchangeRates call is consistently slow and either (a) add a targeted wait or waitFor with a specific timeout around the slow operation (e.g., the code that calls get-exchange-rates), (b) add retries or timeouts in the API call logic, or (c) mock/stub the external service in this test if appropriate—replace the global test.setTimeout with the narrower change once the root cause is resolved.
