CMake generates one solution per directory (CMakeLists.txt) that has its 
own project() call.
To put lib1,TestApp1,lib2 into their own solution you would therefor 
have to put them into a common parent directory (distinct from the other 
targets) and give that parent directory's CMakeLists.txt its own 
project(Myproject) call.
