runsettings test file values not being applied - coded-ui-tests

Question

I have downloaded Visual Studio 2019 and the Coded UI components and am currently trying to run web browser automation testing. The test is working fine but the test.runsettings file that I have created and attached to the CodedUITest via Test > Test Settings and applied the file below to the test but the maximum timeout value that I have set is being ignored and the test is timing out after default 30 minutes
runsettings file is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RunSettings>
<!-- Configurations that affect the Test Framework -->
<RunConfiguration>
<MaxCpuCount>1</MaxCpuCount>
<!-- Path relative to directory that contains .runsettings file-->

<!-- You can also change it from the top-level menu Test > Test Settings > Processor Architecture for AnyCPU Projects -->

I faced the same issue.
For coded UI Tests please use timeout attribute in test method
[Timeout(milliseconds)]
public void DemoTest()
{
}
If you want infinite execution timeout you can use below code
[Timeout(TestTimeout.Infinite)]
public void DemoTest()
{
}
Hope this helps
