+  @brief Runs arbitrary code for a specified amount of time
+  @details Executes a series of procs and data steps to enable performance
+  testing of arbitrary jobs.

+      %mp_testjob(
+         duration=60*5
+      )
+
+  @param [in] duration= the time in seconds which the job should run for. Actual
+  time may vary, as the check is done in between steps.  Default = 30 (seconds).
