If no tests were found, the default behavior of CTest is to always log an
error message but to return an error code in script mode only. This option
unifies the behavior of CTest by either returning an error code if no tests
were found or by ignoring it.

Combine `--repeat-until-fail`, `--repeat-until-pass`, and
`--repeat-after-timeout` to create a single `--repeat <mode>:<n>`
option. Retain `--repeat-until-fail` too because that has been
available in previous releases.
The `PROCESSES` test property name added for CMake 3.16 is too close to
the existing `PROCESSORS` test property. Furthermore, the property in
principle specifies groups of resources organized in a way that is
meaningful to a particular test. The groups may often correspond to
processes but they could have other meanings. Since the property name
`PROCESSES` has not been in a final 3.16 release yet, simply rename it
to `RESOURCE_GROUPS`.
Fixes: #19914
Update command-line options, script variables, and documentation to use
the term "group" instead of "track". The old terms are still available
for now, but they are now undocumented.
This makes our terminology more consistent with CDash. The goal of this
change is to make it more clear to our users how CTest and CDash interact
with each other.
The synopsis added by commit 9d3aa95ca4 (Help: Divide ctest(1) manual
options into sections, 2017-11-08, v3.11.0-rc1~359^2~2) is missing the
actual `--build-and-test` argument! Add it now.
format can be 'human' to print the current text format or 'json-v1' to
print the test object model in json format and is useful for IDEs who
want to gather information about the tests. Defaults to 'human' format.
Print the name of the **cmake** executable in boldface, so that it does
not appear less prominent than other shell commands (which are underlaid
with links). Similarly the other tool manuals.
Since commit v3.0.0-rc1~260^2~14 (ctest: Make the --build-makeprogram
optional for --build-and-test, 2013-11-14), binary dictionary is also
required to run CTest given the option `--build-nocmake`.
Currently, CTest will not initialize any submodules within the already
checked out source tree. Add an option to do so. The use case for not
doing so is that some submodules may not be necessary for the current
test and keeping network usage down may be important.
Add ctest command-line options:
--test-output-size-passed <n>
--test-output-size-failed <n>
to set the amount of test output to store in Test.xml as a command-line
dashboard client.
Add a TestLoad setting to CTest that can be set via a new --test-load
command-line option, CTEST_TEST_LOAD variable, or TEST_LOAD option to
the ctest_test command. Teach cmCTestMultiProcessHandler to measure
the CPU load and avoid starting tests that may take more than the
spare load currently available. The expression
<current_load> + <test_processors> <= <max-load>
must be true to start a new test.
