This method is available on both pool implementations and returns a promise with the task function execution response.
+### `pool.start()`
+
+This method is available on both pool implementations and will start the minimum number of workers.

### `pool.destroy()`
This method is available on both pool implementations and will call the terminate method on each worker.
+### `pool.hasTaskFunction(name)`
+
+`name` (mandatory) The task function name
+
+This method is available on both pool implementations and returns a boolean.
+
### `pool.listTaskFunctionNames()`
This method is available on both pool implementations and returns an array of the task function names.

#### `ThreadPoolOptions extends PoolOptions`
### `class YourWorker extends ThreadWorker/ClusterWorker`
-`taskFunctions` (mandatory) The task function or task functions object `{ name_1: fn_1, ..., name_n: fn_n }` that you want to execute on the worker
+`taskFunctions` (mandatory) The task function or task functions object `{ name_1: fn_1, ..., name_n: fn_n }` that you want to execute on the worker.
`opts` (optional) An object with these properties:
- `killBehavior` (optional) - Dictates if your worker will be deleted in case a task is active on it.
This option only apply to the newly created workers.
Default: `KillBehaviors.SOFT`
-- `maxInactiveTime` (optional) - Maximum waiting time in milliseconds for tasks on newly created workers. After this time newly created workers will die.
+- `maxInactiveTime` (optional) - Maximum waiting time in milliseconds for tasks on newly created workers. After this time newly created workers will die. It must be a positive integer greater or equal than 5.
The last active time of your worker will be updated when it terminates a task.
If `killBehavior` is set to `KillBehaviors.HARD` this value represents also the timeout for the tasks that you submit to the pool, when this timeout expires your tasks is interrupted before completion and removed. The worker is killed if is not part of the minimum size of the pool.
If `killBehavior` is set to `KillBehaviors.SOFT` your tasks have no timeout and your workers will not be terminated until your task is completed.
