I pasted the above code in support directoryThe above code didnt work. Still I can see Timed out waiting for response to {"name":"visit","args":["http://ankakade-portal.dev.bluecloud.ibm.com:3000/server_requests/new"]}. It's possible that this happened because something took a very long time (for example a page load was slow). If so, setting the Poltergeist :timeout option to a higher value will help (see the docs for details). If increasing the timeout does not help, this is probably a bug in Poltergeist - please report it to the issue tracker. (Capybara::Poltergeist::TimeoutError)

I have set the CAPYBARA_TIMEOUT_RETRIES = 3
