# [NAME](#NAME)

TAP::Parser::Scheduler::Job - A single testing job.

# [VERSION](#VERSION)

Version 3.52

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

```
    use TAP::Parser::Scheduler::Job;
```

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

Represents a single test 'job'.

# [METHODS](#METHODS)

## [Class Methods](#Class_Methods)

*"new"*

```
    my $job = TAP::Parser::Scheduler::Job->new(
        $filename, $description
    );
```

Given the filename and description of a test as scalars, returns a new TAP::Parser::Scheduler::Job object.

## [Instance Methods](#Instance_Methods)

*"on\_finish"*

```
    $self->on_finish(\&method).
```

Register a closure to be called when this job is destroyed. The callback will be passed the "TAP::Parser::Scheduler::Job" object as it's only argument.

*"finish"*

```
   $self->finish;
```

Called when a job is complete to unlock it. If a callback has been registered with "on\_finish", it calls it. Otherwise, it does nothing.

## [Attributes](#Attributes)

```
  $self->filename;
  $self->description;
  $self->context;
```

These are all "getters" which return the data set for these attributes during object construction.

*"filename"*

*"description"*

*"context"*

*"as\_array\_ref"*

For backwards compatibility in callbacks.

*"is\_spinner"*

```
  $self->is_spinner;
```

Returns false indicating that this is a real job rather than a 'spinner'. Spinners are returned when the scheduler still has pending jobs but can't (because of locking) return one right now.
