Run project testing script

1. Download project testing script.

2. Put the project testing script to a dashboard directory (for example, ~/Dashboards/project or c:/Dashboards/project).

3. Run CTest tool from a command line:

   $ ctest -VV -S ~/Dashboards/project/project_test.cmake
   

4. Add the above command to a scheduler (for example, cron) or to a CI system (like buildbot, jenkins, travis).

For CTest tool command line options please refer to CTest Documentation.

Configure the testing script

The CTest Extension module can be configured in three ways:

1. Create parent CMake script, which will define all required variables and then include the project's testing script:

   set(CTEST_TARGET_SYSTEM "Linux-Ubuntu-14.04-x64")
   set(CTEST_MODEL         "Performance")
   include("~/Dashboards/project/project_test.cmake")
   

2. Pass the options with CTest command line:

   $ ctest -VV -S ~/Dashboards/project/project_test.cmake \
       -DCTEST_TARGET_SYSTEM="Linux-Ubuntu-14.04-x64" \
       -DCTEST_MODEL="Nightly"
   

3. Set the options as environment variables prior to CTest call:

   $ export CTEST_TARGET_SYSTEM="Linux-Ubuntu-14.04-x64"
   $ export CTEST_MODEL="Nightly"
   $ ctest -VV -S ~/Dashboards/project/project_test.cmake
