Hi there,
I am quite new to AppVeyor and couldnt find and solution dir zur following issue:
I set up a workflow of depending jobs:
1. Compile
2. Unit Test(s)
3. Build
4. Integration Tests

Unit Tests are failling as they so not have any BuildOutput result from Compile.
Is build Cache (which I would flush by API in first job) the right approach or do I miss something?

Thanks in advance,
M.

   Hi Matthias,

   You can use PowerShell script to download build artifacts: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/api/samples/download-artifacts-ps/

   Hi Feodor,
   Thanks for this solution. Is there any advantage / benefit compared to cache?
   Artifacts need to be published, cache needs to be flushed...

   Cache has job scope, not build.
