Okay, back to this list then from kde-testing. I have at least tried. :) > Actually, make test invokes CTest behind the scenes[1].
Actually, yes. :-) > That being said, if > we aren't uploading results anywhere, CTest only runs the test executables and > offers nothing else (in this case). If tomorrow we drop CMake/CTest, the > tests would still run fine as is. Yes, they can be run separately. I believe that is also my workflow when a test fails. I run the desired binary in question to see which test methods pass and fail to localize the issue further on. I think "make test", and hence ctest, is a good and handy service after all in my opinion. I am not worried about that, and it comes with cmake (at least on the distributions I use).
