- Update discover_tests to work with test_prep targets and ctest --out-of-date
- Extend behavior to gtest_discover_tests
- Don't treat non-built targets as always out of date
- Support imported targets in BUILD_DEPENDS
Issue: #28052, #28070
Add an --out-of-date option to ctest which runs only those tests with
recorded build dependencies whose timestamps are newer than the timestamp
at which the test last finished.
Fixes: #27614
Extend the test_prep/<test> and test_prep/all build targets, generated
from add_test(BUILD_DEPENDS) when CMAKE_TEST_BUILD_DEPENDS is enabled, to
the Makefile generators. Previously only the Ninja and FASTBuild
generators provided them.
Resolve each test's dependencies in a shared layer so all command-line
generators consume one result. cmTestGenerator now filters target
dependencies to build-system targets and records, for each file
dependency, the single target that produces it as a primary
custom-command output (cmGlobalGenerator::FindOutputOwningTarget). The
Makefile generators emit phony rules in CMakeFiles/Makefile2 depending on
<target>.dir/all, with top-level forwarding rules. Sharing the
resolution also stops Ninja and FASTBuild from emitting a dead test_prep
edge for a non-buildable (e.g. INTERFACE) BUILD_DEPENDS target.
On the Makefile generators a file dependency that no single target
produces, and a test whose name contains ':', cannot be expressed as a
recursive-make rule and are reported with a warning and skipped.
Fixes: #27879
Add `test_prep/<test_name>` convenience targets to the ninja generator
to build dependencies of tests, and `test_prep/all` to build the dependencies
of all tests.
Build dependencies of a test include:
- Executables directly invoked by test `COMMAND`.
- Targets mentioned in generator expressionf os test `COMMAND`.
- Anything explicitly listed with the new `BUILD_DEPENDS` argument of `add_test`.
Issue: #27613
The `BUILD_TESTING` variable is referenced in `add_test` and
`enable_testing`. It should be documented as it controls the
behavior tests working when projects use `include(CTest)`.
* enable_testing must be called to enable testing
* can only set properties on tests created in same directory
* WILL_FAIL still fails on segfault and similar
* compact wording
This change ony concerns directives that appear in the document body.
The guidelines for inserting version directives:
* Baseline version is CMake 3.0, i.e. directives start at 3.1.
* Always use `.. versionadded::` directive, avoid ad-hoc version
references. Exception: policy pages.
* For new command signatures, put `versionadded` on a separate line
after the signature.
* For a group of new signatures in a new document section,
a single version note at the beginning of the section is sufficient.
* For new options, put `versionadded` on a separate line before
option description.
* If all the option descriptions in the list are short one-liners,
it's fine to put `versionadded` on the same line as the description.
* If multiple option descriptions in close proximity would have
the same ..versionadded directive, consider adding a single
directive after the list, mentioning all added options.
* For compact value lists and sub-option lists, put a single
`versionadded` directive after the list mentioning all additions.
* When a change is described in a single paragraph, put
`versionadded` into that paragraph.
* When only part of the paragraph has changed, separate the changed
part if it doesn't break the flow. Otherwise, write a follow-up
clarification paragraph and apply version directive to that.
* When multiple version directives are close by, order earlier
additions before later additions.
* Indent related lists and code blocks to include them in the scope
of `versionadded` directive.
Issue: #19715
Restore the change from commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special
characters in test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) that had to be
reverted by commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special characters in
test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) for compatibility.
Add policy CMP0110 to make the change in a compatible way.
Also, support even more characters than before by generating the
test scripts using bracket arguments around the test names.
Fixes: #19391

Revert commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special characters in test
name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2). Unfortunately the fix breaks
projects that were working around the limitation with manual escaping.
The fix can be re-introduced with a policy in a future version.
Also add a 3.18.1 release note explaining the change.
Fixes: #21017, #20965
Issue: #19391
Add a `COMMAND_EXPAND_LISTS` option to the `add_test` command to cause
`;`-separated lists produced by generator expressions to be expanded
into multiple arguments. The `add_custom_command` command already
has such an option.
Fixes: #17284
Generator expressions are supported in many places and are a distinct
concept worthy of their own manual page. The old builtin documentation
was previously represented by preprocessor macros to generate it into
each place that supports them. Factor out the duplicate content into a
dedicated cmake-generator-expressions manual page and reference it from
each original location.
