The way we do this in stdci [1] for oVirt, RHV and CNV is to:

1. Manage complex flows with multiple tests using pipelines rather than
jobs calling in another.
2. Use the pipeline GitHub notify plugins [2] to send different
notifications from different tests.

Setting up pipelines with JJB is quite simple, but you can also use a
Jenkinsfile which can make JJB redundant.
