Is there a JS test framework that will provide a backtrace if a test exceeds a timeout?

We do that in React test suite with a Babel plugin. https://reactjs.org/blog/2017/12/15/improving-the-repository-infrastructure.html#preventing-infinite-loops …
Neat! Although this just seems to be for while loops? I’d want to handle more complex cases. From what I’ve seen it’s possible to start a test worker in node debug mode and then use the debug protocol to get a backtrace when it doesn’t respond.

Yeah we didn’t bother looking into that. In our case most infinite loops are whiles with bad conditions. We have quite a few whiles.

Shouldn’t really be your problem anyway. Should be implemented in the test framework itself. I’m looking into this for -REDACTED-.
