What it does

This action creates one or more Pods and ensures that a specified number of them successfully terminate using Kubernetes Jobs. A simple case is to create one Job object in order to reliably run one Pod to completion. The Job object will start a new Pod if the first Pod fails or is deleted (for example due to a node hardware failure or a node reboot).

How it works

This action executes kubectl apply against a K8s cluster to run a job using provided YAML. Then, it runs kubectl describe to check if the job was completed and with what result (up to 90 minutes).
