[CMake] Where are tests located?

[David Cole]

When you add an IMPORTED target, CMake does not know where the
imported target is AT ALL until you tell it.

After:
  add_executable(run_main.pl IMPORTED)

You need:
  set_property(TARGET run_main.pl PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/run_main.pl")

See docs here:
  http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:set_property
  http://cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:IMPORTED_LOCATION


HTH,
David
