var i = 0
new testCron('1 * * * * *', function () {
    if(i == 5) 
        process.exit(); // <---- program will terminate
    try {
        http.get(url, function (err, response) {
            if (err && i < 5) {
                temp[i] = err;
                console.log("its err no", i);
                i++;
            } else {
                console.log("its reach in else");
            }
        })
        throw err;
    } catch (e) {
