How about this?

# configure the build system
${CMAKE_ROOT}${CMAKE_BINDIR}/cmake .
# run an Experimental dashboard
${CMAKE_ROOT}${CMAKE_BINDIR}/ctest -D Experimental

Running an Experimental dashboard should execute configure, build and
test steps and submit the results to the CDash server. The initial
configure is necessary to configure some of the files that ctest reads
to know, for example, where the CDash server is.
