[Paraview] OverView build testing?

[David E DeMarle]

ctest (the regression test tester that comes with cmake) is used to run them
ctest -R "regexp" and ctest -I start,stop,slice will run subsets of them
ctest -V will run them and tee the logs to the console
the logs show the actual commands used to run the tests and test
output messages among other things
