I am not sure where I found info on this variable, but the ITK/VTK projects are always a good resource on the latest trends/development in CMake/CTest/CPack.
Further, for anyone interested, please note the difference in CTEST_EXTRA_COVERAGE_GLOB, which lists glob expressions as used by file (GLOB), and CTEST_CUSTOM_COVERAGE_EXCLUDE, which uses regular expressions. In the beginning, I wasn't very clear about this, but in either case you would need to use "/test/*" or "/test/.*", respectively, to include/exclude all files in some "test/" directory. Regarding this variable, I was eventually looking at the source code and figured that indeed only source files in the source tree are considered.
