ctest

Sometimes it's good to check that certain things fail to build, e.g.: // Next line should fail to compile: can't convert const iterator to iterator. my_new_container_type::iterator it = my_new_container_type::const_iterator(); Is it possible to incorporate these types of things into CMake/CTest? I'm looking for something like this in CMakeLists.txt : add_build_failure_executable( test_iterator_conversion_build_failure iterator_conversion_build_failure.cpp) add_build_failure_test( test_iterator_conversion_build_failure test_iterator_conversion_build_failure) (Of course, these specific CMake

I'm using CTest (part of CMake) for my automated tests. How do I get CTest results in the Jenkins dashboard ? Or, phrased differently, how do I get CTest to output in JUnit-like XML ? In Jenkins, after the CMake part (probably made through the CMake plugin), add the following batch script, or adapt for builds on Linux : del build_32\JUnitTestResults.xml pushd build_32\Tests "C:\Program Files\CMake 2.8\bin\ctest.exe" -T Test -C RelWithDebInfo --output-on-failure popd verify >nul C:\Python27\python.exe external/tool/CTest2JUnit.py build_32/Tests external/tool/CTest2JUnit.xsl > build_32

I want ctest to show me the failed tests output by default. That is, I want to run: $ make all test and see any output of failed tests without having to cat Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log . It appears that there are two ways of doing this: (1) Setting the CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE environmental variable: $ CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 make all test $ # or CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 ctest (2) Specifying the --output-on-failure flag to the ctest invocation: $ ctest --output-on-failure Is there a way to write a CMakeLists.txt file such that ctests dumps failed tests output by default on a normal "make

I'm using CMake to build my project. I have added a unit test binary which is using the Boost unit testing framework. This one binary contains all of the unit tests. I've added that binary to be run by CTest: ADD_EXECUTABLE( tftest test-main.cpp ) ENABLE_TESTING() ADD_TEST( UnitTests tftest) But the build output in Visual Studio only shows the result of running CTest: Start 1: UnitTests 1/1 Test #1: UnitTests ................***Failed 0.05 sec 0% tests passed, 1 tests failed out of 1 This is not very helpful, because I can't see which test failed. If I run ctest manually from the command line

I want my tests to be launched each time my project is successfully built. And if some tests are broken I want my build to be broken too. By default I need to run tests manually by running ctest command. CTest can actually build project but I use IDE that invokes make to build sources. And make doesn't run tests. I add this command to my root CMakeLists.txt file but it doesn't work. add_custom_command(OUTPUT tests.txt POST_BUILD COMMAND ctest --output-on-failure) CMake doesn't return any errors and everything builds fine but my custom command doesn't invokes. How can I run something after each
