But these benefits may be diminished if the tests aren't performing as intended. There are several reasons why tests become unstable, most of which you can turn around by following these best practices and guidelines.

Timing can make or break your test flows, but by following a few simple steps as you set up your tests, you can cross this bridge early and minimize the likelihood that timing will be the source of your problems. Start by running your test locally and try to find the places where tests are failing due to timeouts.

If your tests are still breaking, you should look beyond timing and reconsider the logic of the flow as well as any performance issues in the environment that could have occurred at the time of the test failure.
