$ only works with the "add_test(NAME mytest COMMAND
MyCommand)" form of the add_test command.
But, when you use that form, you have to run "ctest -C Release" or "ctest -C
Debug" to choose a configuration when you run the tests. Otherwise, tests
added with that form are skipped if ctest is called without a -C argument.
"make test" just runs "ctest" without -C, so you have to change the way you
drive tests to use the add_test(NAME / COMMAND) signature. Usually, this is
useful for folks focused on IDE builds like Visual Studio or Xcode. If you
choose RUN_TESTS from inside the IDE, it already passes a -C arg to ctest,
and so it should work from that context.
