[CMake] ctest return code

[Tom Deblauwe]

Hello,

In attachment a project which illustrates the problem.

Just change the directory in the ctest script 
"continuous_dashboard.cmake" to where your source is.

Then i run ctest in my bash script. I'm in git bash on windows now, but 
I get the problem on linux too.

tdb at PCTDBP /c/werk/cmake_tests
$ ctest -S dashboard/continuous_dashboard.cmake -VV

Ctest then runs, and this is the last of the output, in which you can 
see that it builds but that the unittest fails.

.========== Build: 3 succeeded, 0 failed, 2 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

lib.exe

1/1 Test #1: testMylibTest ....................***Failed    0.05 sec

0% tests passed, 1 tests failed out of 1

Total Test time (real) =   2.44 sec

The following tests FAILED:
           1 - testMylibTest (Failed)

Then after ctest exits I do:
tdb at PCTDBP /c/werk/cmake_tests
$ echo $?
0

As you can see: the test failed, but ctest just returns 0.

Best regards,
Tom,
