I think running a dashboard from a crontab will not have the same
environment and won't load your bashrc files. You need to add those switch
commands to the script that runs your dashboard.

So your crontab might like look:

5 22 * * * /bin/sh some_shell_script_that_launches_your_dashboard.txt

and then a dashboard script
(some_shell_script_that_launches_your_dashboard.txt) that sets any
environment variables and calls ctest, e.g.:

switch old-mpi new-mpi

ctest -S my_dashboard_script
