That's very obviously a problem of the test config yielding an improper
target-name-only result rather than a FQPN to the target-built under-test binary.
AFAIR I complained about the same thing once (search for previous
posts), and at that time it turned out to be a matter of using
a wrong (outdated) signature (variant) of a certain CTest setup function.

Hmm, does this really need specific manual extra escaped quoting? Just
asking...
