Jenkins conditional post-based action in a pipeline stage

[Kai]

Hi,

I have a pipeline with multiple stages and for my integration test stage, I trigger my integration test. I wanted to setup some post-step based logic where if the test job passes, it does some action and if the test job fails it performs a different action (e.g. send email) .

stage('Run Integration Tests') {

            steps {

                timeout(time: 30, unit: 'MINUTES') {

                    retry(1) {

                        build job: 'my-integration-test'

                    }

                } 

            }

        }

Enter code here...

Is it possible to accomplish this kind of setup ?

Thanks

It seems like using try/catch complicates the code and then I have to remember to still fail the pipeline in the exception block. Using the post functionality seems to be for the entire pipeline not for a specific step.

Is there a post-step functionality that can be invoked for both pass and fail of a step ?  Thanks

You can use the post{} block within a stage in the declarative pipeline:  

stage('Run Integration Tests') {
           steps {
               timeout(time: 30, unit: 'MINUTES') {
                   retry(1) {
                       build job: 'my-integration-test'
                   }
               }
            }

            post {
                always {

                }
                changed {

                }
                success {

                }
                failure {

                }
                unstable {

                }
            }
       }
