          shahmishal This sounds like JENKINS-38442. Would you agree?

          I sketched what this may look like with matrix. I think what is really being looked for here is matrix support - but with some limited nested stages. Any time there is a bulk fan out, 90% of the time people want matrix. One plan is just to have proper matrix support for these cases.

          So this may look in pseudo pipeline, something like: 

          parallel(
     'release'  : {
          stage('Build') {
                  ..
          } 
          stage('Test') {
             matrix(...) {
             }          
          }
     }, 
     'debug' : {
       stage('Build') {
               ..
       } 
       stage('Test') {
          matrix(...) {
          }          
       }
     }
)

          This would allow the differnet stages to run concurrently before joining up with subsequent stages...

          thoughts? closer?

          michaelneale Yes, this sounds closer to what I was looking for. https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-38442 is lot more complex but it would work too.

          shahmishal this is good to know. I think the ultimate solution for JENKINS-38442, based on the use cases we are hearing more and more of, is that Pipeline needs better support for matrix style testing. Im going to close this against JENKINS-38442 and link it to our internal tracker for matrix.
