time
time dependencies can be absolute, i.e. they will run at the exact time.
They can also be relative; in this case we provide the time from the moment the suite is begun.
Time dependencies can be repeated at regular intervals. The nodes stays complete once all time instances have run.

time 23:00 # at next 23:00 time 10:00 20:00 01:00 # every hour from 10am to 8pm time +00:01 # one minute after the suite has begun time +00:10 01:00 00:05 # 10 to 60 minutes after begin every 5 minutes |
In the last example we have task that runs every five minutes, however what happens if the task takes longer ?
When this happens, the time slot, is missed.
date or day
Date dependencies are always absolute, but wild cards can be used.
