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