Summary0010476: No program output if CTest aborts test with timeout
DescriptionWhen a test takes too long and is aborted by CTest no command output is written to the test report. Without that output it's harder to see what actually went wrong.

Does this still occur with ctest from git 'master' or 'next'...?

Are you talking about executing via a script or via "ctest -D Nightly" or ...?

An example, or steps to reproduce the problem would be helpful.

Thanks.

We will not be addressing this for the upcoming CMake 2.8.3 release.

If you use this as test program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
  printf("foobar\n");
  sleep(10000000);
  return 0;
}

And set the timeout to something less than the value passed to sleep the CTest log will only show "timeout" but not the output produced by the program so far ("foobar").

I'm uncertain of how much effort this one will take to fix... I'll put it on the roadmap, but unless somebody has a patch, or the knowledge of what exactly to change to fix this, then there may not be enough time to come up with a fix in the next two weeks.

Not enough time left to address this issue before the 2.8.6 release. Deferred until a future release.

I don't have access to the original failing stuff anymore. But I just tested this again. When adding fflush(stdout); before the sleep to make the stuff actually written by the process I see the results in the output log. So until someone proves me wrong I would say this has been fixed.
