Question

I want to add a Build step with the Groovy plugin to read a file and trigger a build fail depending on the content of the file.

How can I inject the workspace file p

Answer 1

If you are trying to read a file from the workspace during a pipeline build step, there's a method for that:

readFile('name-of-file.groovy')
