Not 100% certain of your problem, but I think you're looking for
something like this:

    # Start a new submission.
    ctest_start (${TP_DASHBOARD_MODEL})
    # Calculate TP_CTEST_XML_DIR (which changes whenver ctest_start() is
    # called).
    file (READ "${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/Testing/TAG" tag_file)
    string (REGEX MATCH "[^\n]*" xml_dir ${tag_file})
    set (TP_CTEST_XML_DIR "${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/Testing/${xml_dir}")


The idea for this comes from Clinton Stimpson. See also:
