Is it possible to have codebase build in first and all the jobs share the codebase.

Question

Hello Atlassian,

I have a bamboo plan which has multiple stages and jobs within the stages, after every job reports will generate, i want to consolidate all the reports and send as a final job execution. since bamboo will have seperate codebase for each job, i am not able to achieve this, is there a way i keep code base in one location and all the jobs should use the code base and execute tests and post the results in one location.

Thanks in advance

Thank you Rafael, "Checking out code" option will work for me, Sharing artifacts will not work since i want to share artifacts between jobs within the stage(Which is not possible at the moment).

Thank you very much for the quick response

Hello Venkatalakshmi,

Thank you for your question.

When creating a new job, Bamboo will create a Build Working Directory to it so the tasks associated with the job will not interfere one another. However, what you are requesting would be sharing the content of a build working directory between jobs, which is not possible at moment, I am afraid.

Instead, I would suggest you on working with:

* Sharing artifacts

* Checking out code

As Bamboo will copy files to the Build Working Directory so you can work with them. If space is an issue, you could also enable "Clean working directory after each build" under "[JOB] >> Miscellaneous" tab.

If you find this answer useful, I would kindly ask you to accept it so the same will be visible to others who might be facing the same issue you have inquired.

Thank you for your understanding.
