I would say that DEPENDS is used to actually link the command to a physical
file to know when the command needs to be triggered again.
As a consequence, my guess would be that CMake is probably looking for that
one in the source directory :-)

You could try to put an absolute path to the DEPENDS... or, I would
actually go for a post-build action of the executable target you have
defined:
add_custom_command(TARGET ${target}
  POST_BUILD
  COMMAND ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/**bin/${target} ${resultFileFolder}
)
Ps: ARGS is now optional.

Hope this helps and kind regards,
