[Anthill-pro] Referencing Originating Workflow working dir

[Jeff Rodgers (jerodger)]

Thanks Eric. That does make sense. I was just trying to find some way
around not being able to rerun a failed job in a workflow.

Jeff,

I can look into this, but I would suggest that you might reconsider this
approach. Your 'unit tests' workflow sounds like it will only be valid
against the most recent build. If you run your 'Unit Test' 
non-originating workflow against a build you did last week, it will
operate using whatever happens to be in that space.

You may want to add a second 'unit tests' job to the current workflow
and just run one after the other. Alternatively, you might gather up
your tests in a myproject-tests.jar and put it into a 'tests' artifact
set. Then, your unit test workflow could deploy you project and the
tests to a clean workspace and run your unit tests there. That would
ensure that the traceability provided by Anthill is accurate.

Does that make sense?
