In CTestCustom.cmake, I use CTEST_CUSTOM_MEMCHECK_IGNORE and

I recently broke apart a rather large shell script that was used to run a
test under many scenarios into something like

   foreach (a 0 1)
     foreach (b 0 1)
       foreach (c 0 1)
         add_test(NAME big_test_${a}${b}${c} COMMAND big_test ${a} ${b} ${c})
       endforeach (c)
     endforeach (b)
   endforeach (a)

...you get the idea.  It generates somewhere in the realm of 2000 test
cases.  Now they run in parallel, which is great, but I can no longer turn
off this suite of tests easily.

It would be great to do something like

   list(APPEND CTEST_CUSTOM_TESTS_IGNORE 'big_test_.*')

Is this or something like it supported?

Well, since we're talking about regular expressions, the "list separator" is '|'. Have you tried:

set(CTEST_CUSTOM_TESTS_IGNORE
    "${CTEST_CUSTOM_TESTS_IGNORE}|big_test_.*")

...?

(Supporting an *actual* list of regular expressions seems like a nice enhancement request, but hopefully the above can work around it for now.)
