You put the timeout in the Tests.

-module(demo_tests).
-include_lib("eunit/include/eunit.hrl").
timeout_setup_test_() ->
     {setup,
      fun() -> ok end,
      fun(_) -> ok end,
      {timeout,20,
       fun() -> ok = demo:a() end}}.


-module(demo_tests).
-include_lib("eunit/include/eunit.hrl").
timeout_setup_test_() ->
     {setup,
      fun() -> ok end,
      fun(_) -> ok end,
      {timeout,20,
       fun() -> ok = demo:a() end}}.


erlc *.erl
erl
eunit:test(demo).
