Timeout on a Build Step of Jenkins

In Jenkins, is there a way to give different timeouts to each or selected build step?
Build-time plugin out gives functionality of timeout "Abort the build if it's stuck" on complete project, what I need is to give different timeouts for each step. This way I can make my process more efficient.

Solution 1:

If you are using Jenkins pipeline, and the newer declarative style (has a top level pipeline { element) then there is a timeout option that can be used for the overall job, or on individual stages:

pipeline {
    agent any

    options {
        timeout(time: 1, unit: 'HOURS')   // timeout on whole pipeline job
    }

    stages {
        stage('Example') {
          options {
              timeout(time: 1, unit: 'HOURS')   // timeout on this stage
          }
          steps {
              echo 'Hello World'
          }
        }
    }
}

Solution 2:

As of current versions of Jenkins, this can be done. Hit 'Configure', then select the 'Build Environment' tab, and then set your timeout.
