How can I pass artifacts to another stage?

by

I’d like to use GitLab CI with the .gitlab-ci.yml file to run different stages with separate scripts. The first stage produces a tool that must be used in a later stage to perform tests. I’ve declared the generated tool as artifact.

Now how can I execute that tool in a later stage job? What is the correct path, and what files will there be around it?

For example the first stage builds artifacts/bin/TestTool/TestTool.exe and that directory contains other required files (DLLs and others). My .gitlab-ci.yml file looks like this:

releasebuild:
  script:
    - chcp 65001
    - build.cmd
  stage: build
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - artifacts/bin/TestTool/

systemtests:
  script:
    - chcp 65001
    - WHAT TO WRITE HERE?
  stage: test

The build and tests run on Windows if that’s relevant.
