What do you mean by 'you have a job trigger'? If you mean that you have a child
job triggered by the completion of the first one, then any environment
variables you set in the build steps in the first job will not carry over to
the child job. Any changes you make in the environment inside a build step will
only exist for the lifetime of that build step; in the next build step, or any
post-build steps, or child jobs, they will not be visible. There is no job-wide
environment.

I hope I can explain this clearly enough the first time around.
I have a parameterized build.
Under "This build is parameterized", I have added three choices:
TEST_ARGS, which accepts a string
TEST_GROUP_A, which is a "choice"
TEST_GROUP_B, which is also a "choice"
I have these broken out for clarity.
In the BUILD section the first thing I do is:
export TEST_ARGS="${TEST_ARGS} ${TEST_GROUP_A,} ${TEST_GROUP_B}"
This, in theory, puts the entirety of "TEST_ARGS" into the shell as an
environment variable.
Next, I have a job trigger; however, that job is not getting the full string.
Only the original TEST_ARGS string that the user typed into the first
parameter. I have "Current Build Parameters" selected. I have also tried to
add "Predefined Parameters" and define TEST_ARGS=$TEST_ARGS, since it says I
can use "build parameters and/or environment variables."
Either way, I can only get the original TEST_ARGS string to be passed all the
way through.
Any suggestions?
I have these split out because parameters 2 and 3 are optional and to make
things more clear for my users. However, I have muddied the waters for
Jenkins, or myself.
