+/* @description: This module serves as a common emitter to be used by\r
+ * the test execution controller and job definitions. The Agenda library\r
+ * only returns a job object when that object persists in the database.\r
+ * Therefore, there is no conventional way to return the response from\r
+ * the service api (inside the job definition) to the controller to be\r
+ * sent back to the user of the scheduling endpoint (In this case it would\r
+ * be the UI). Setting up a listener in the controller will allow emitting\r
+ * an event from the job definition to relay the response. Events are\r
+ * distinguished by using the job identifier as part of the event name.\r
