Research direction

The failing test is test_interactions_default_timeout in google/genai/tests/interactions/test_integration.py, which imports a nonexistent _interactions module. Start by searching the package for _interactions and DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, and look at the commit b006b4bb that added the test. Run pytest google/genai/tests/interactions to reproduce the import error. Done when the test either no longer errors or is removed or rewritten to match the code that exists, and the suite collects cleanly. Confirm the intended behaviour with maintainers first.

Description

priority: p2 type: bug

This test from google/genai/tests/interactions/test_integration.py file will fail:

def test_interactions_default_timeout():

  assert _interactions.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT == httpx.Timeout(
      timeout=None, connect=5.0
  )

This test added by this commit, try to import _interactions module that doesn't exist in all the source, even it assume that it has DEFAULT_TIMEOUT property that doesn't exist in any module.
