Such that on  CDash I could click directly on the link in the build error or test output. Is there a way to format or scape the html tags such that it appears as when displaying the build errors or test output?

CTest parses test output and extracts information contained in 
<DartMeasurement> XML elements.
These are transmitted to CDash as test measurements.

Measurements can be links, html, text, numbers or images.

This documentation isn't actually for CDash but I think the format of 
the DartMeasurement elements still mostly works:

CDash displays measurements on the page with the test output e.g.:
http://open.cdash.org/testDetails.php?test=218766786&build=3136881 
(random link I picked from one of the public Dashboards)
