You can customize the deferred object as per your need. This is simple and can be achieved by calling out the jQuery.Deferred() method. We can also define our own process and the sequence of the flow and arrange the output as required. We can use setInterval() to set up the delays and setTimeout() to decide when to end the sequence. The scope of variable declaration decides whether the deferred object has to be locally or globally processed. If the deferred object is assigned to a local variable, we can call deferred object's resolve(), promise(), and notify() events.

Let's have a look at this example:

var myCustomPromise = process();
myCustomPromise.done(function() {
    $('#result').html('done.');
});
myCustomPromise.progress(function() {
    $('#result').html($('#result').html() + '.');
});

function process() {
    var deferred = $.Deferred();

    MyTimerCall = setInterval(function() {
        deferred.notify();
    }, 1000);

    setTimeout(function() {
 ...
