My Testing Thoughts

Since the jobs operate in different namespaces, passing variable values between them is unlike passing a variable value from one function to another. In the example below, $app_Token is the variable name that needs to be sent from one job to another job but within the same stage.

The task.setvariable command, which is illustrated below, is required to store variables using PowerShell in the Azure Pipeline library.
