[Anthill-pro] Job iteration and properties

[Frederic Jean]

I'm using Anthill 3.4.9

After some test i figured out that , you only need to set properties in the iteration you want to overwrite in the workflow. 
So I removed the BRANCH=${property:BRANCH} definition as it was already set when I call my workflow and it doesn't need to change for each of my job iteration, so it fixed my problem .

Also by trying to add Iteration in Parallel I noticed that if I set the number of iteration in parallel to N which is less than the number of total iteration I have, Anthill will process sequentially all iteration and will try to parallelize the first N iteration , but if those iteration are filtered to be executed to the same agent that can only execute one iteration , others are queued... so there is only one iteration that is executed at a time.

Another point is that for each of my iteration I deliver artifacts that need to be tested, the problem is that each iteration as a unique set of artifacts.. the problem is I end up having all the artifacts for all my iteration build in the same set. So when I call my test workflow it fetch all artifacts of all my iteration build which imply that some artifact are overwritten...

Is there a way to fix that ? maybe I am doing something wrong ?

Thank you !

What version of Anthill are you using? What you are trying to do works
for me. What is the value of BRANCH in the job logs? Also, check if
BRANCH is defined as a project property that is set to "Pass to
Builders"? I did that and my property was passed to the job twice with
different values.

What is the relation with workflow properties and job iteration
properties ?

In my workflow , i run 6 iteration of a job.. I thought I could do
something like

BRANCH=${property:BRANCH} where ${property:BRANCH} is my workflow
property.

But it does not work ? why ? also those properties I set for my job
iteration , how do I access them in my job ? same way I access my
workflow property -> ${property:BRANCH} ?

Thank you
