How to set up and validate locally

  1. Create a GitLab project
  2. Add a CI yaml config to the demo project
sample_job:
    variables:
        SETME : "<default>"
    script:
        - echo "SET_ME => $SET_ME"
    when: manual
  1. Set the SET_ME variables in the UI to example
  2. Run the sample_job manual job
  3. Check the log for the example variables output
  4. Retry the job
  5. See the SET_ME variable output is the same as the one when the job was first ran
