The current example provided in the documentation to run a job with an in-memory repository actually uses MapJobRepositoryFactoryBean, which is deprecated.

It would be good to review the example and provide one that shows the "real" recommended way.. I guess it would be way to use an H2 datasource (ideally, programmatically) initialized with the proper tables so that it can be used directly
