I'm still trying to figure out how to handle the following two
situations (simplified):
When we run the tests for our Nightly Dashboard, in addition to a
number of other tests, consider "Test A" and "Test B".
If "Test A" fails, then I don't even want to attempt to run "Test B".
The program is a complex one that can run on a wide range of hardware.
It can handle both "easy" data sets and "hard" ones. The "hard" ones
push system resources, in terms of both cpu cycles and memory, and
exercise parts of the program that are not necessary for the "easy"
data sets.
Although it would try, we know, in advance, that some of the older
hardware is not "capable" in handling the more difficult data sets.
The test will fail, either because of memory or time constraints.
Therefore, I would like to avoid even attempting to run some of the
tests on installations that have older CPUs or smaller memory.
Are there any standard CMake variables that can be tested to
differentiate various machine capabilities? Is there any interest in
establishing some?
