1. Challenge

   Create project1

   This project requires the Parameterized trigger plugin. Go to Manage Jenkins, then Manage Plugins, and install the parameterized trigger plugin.

   Configure project1 to take a string parameter. Call it what you like. Set the default to what you like.

   Create a build step for execute shell. Put in the following as the build step ($var is the name of the parameter you gave to the previous step):

   echo "name="$var > project1.txt
   

   Post build, archive the artifact project1.txt and fingerprint it.

   Post build, this project should trigger project2 and send parameters from the project1.txt file.

2. Challenge

   Create project2

   This should be a parameterized project.
   It should have one string parameter called name.
   The build step should be:

   echo "Hello" $name > project2.txt
   

   The artifact project2.txt should be archived and fingerprinted.
   Post build, this should trigger a build on project3.

3. Challenge

   Create project3

   This project requires the copy artifact plugin.

   Go to Manage Jenkins and install the copy artifact plugin.

   Create the project as a Freestyle job, in the build steps.

   First, copy the project2.txt artifact from project2.
   Second, create the project3 artifact by creating a shell build step:

   content=`cat project2.txt`
   echo $content "this is from project3." > project3.txt
   

   Archive the file project3.txt and fingerprint the archive.
   Verify that the file contains the required text.
