The value would be defined at the end of the execution of the build steps.
How to assign such a value from the upstream job ? I can see the name of the
predefined parameter defined in the upstream job
as part of the environment variable in the downstream job but I am not able
to access the value variable ?
currently in the upstream job if TEST_HWPACK_NAME  is the predefined
variable how to access this in the downstream job ?
I tried using $TEST_HWPACK_NAME but I don't the value that is assigned to
that variable.

2. Select the "Trigger parametrized build on other projects" in the
