1) In C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\QTAgent *.exe.config            

Add

<add key="StopTestRunCallTimeoutInSeconds" value="600"/>

<add key="DataCollectorCleanupTimeoutInSeconds" value="600"/>

in <appSettings> section.

Caution: There are several QTAgent*.exe.config files. Hence, to be safe; please update these entries in all the following config files:

QTAgent.exe.config

QTAgent_35.exe.config

QTAgent_40.exe.config

QTAgent32.exe.config

QTAgent32_35.exe.config

QTAgent32_40.exe.config

2)  Restart the TestAgents.

3) On Controller side, there is a config called “AgentCleanupTimeout” present in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\QTController.exe.config, which controls the timeout from controller side. Please set this value to 1000.
