Going into the build configuration and telling it to run tests, (I think the checkbox is RUNTESTS, but I don't have my laptop here), causes it to run tests as it is trying to compile the main executable for my project.
The directory structure is: lib1 lib2 lib3 main (location of the main() entry point of the program) testing CTEST is being called before it is done compiling my application.
