There are multiple plugins that can help with the kind of thing you want to do.
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Copy+Data+To+Workspace+Plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Copy+To+Slave+Plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Copy+Artifact+Plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Publish+Over+SSH+Plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Publish+Over+CIFS+Plugin The build output and the results record by plugins like xUnit will be sent to master. If you want to preserve any files you will need to send them to a specific location using one of the 'Publish over' plugins and then use copy-data-to-workspace or copy-to-slave plugins to restore the files at start of build. The workspace should be treated as potential throwaway and it is a bonus if it has been preserved. If you want to ensure the output artifacts are preserved enable 'Archive artifacts' or publish your artifacts to a binary repository like Artifactory, Archiva or Nexus.
