Steps to reproduce
Run the following declarative pipeline multiple times:
pipeline {
agent { label 'windows' }
stages {
stage('Stage') {
options {
timeout(time: 5, unit: 'SECONDS')
}
steps {
script {
writeFile(file: 'sleep.bat', text: 'ping -n 100 localhost')
writeFile(file: 'sleep.ps1', text: 'Start-Sleep 100')
// FAILS 50 %
bat 'powershell -File sleep.ps1'
// OK
//bat 'ping -n 100 localhost'
// OK
//bat 'sleep.bat'
// OK
//powershell 'Start-Sleep 100'
// OK
//powershell './sleep.ps1'
}
}
}
}
post {
always {
echo 'always'
}
success {
echo 'success'
}
aborted {
echo 'aborted'
}
failure {
echo 'failure'
}
unsuccessful {
echo 'unsuccessful'
}
}
}
Expected behavior
The timeout is honored.
The build fails on every run.
The failed builds are displayed "gray".
In the post actions, "aborted" and "unsuccessful" is echoed.
Actual behavior
The timeout is honored.
The build fails only around 50% of the runs. On about every other run, the build is marked green although it ran into timeout. In these cases, the post actions echo "successful".

Additional information
I am aware of the "powershell" step and that this is the preferred way of running PowerShell. As you can see in the example pipeline, the bug is not present when using the "powershell" step. Nevertheless I wanted to inform you about this bug, as maybe other executables are affected as well.
