In commit v2.8.0~170 (ENH: Added ctest test options PROCESSORS and RUN_SERIAL, 2009-09-07) CTest learned to track the number of processors allocated to running tests in order to balance it against the desired level of parallelism. Extend this idea by introducing a new `PROCESSOR_AFFINITY` test property to ask that CTest run a test with the CPU affinity mask set. This will allow a set of tests that are running concurrently to use disjoint CPU resources.
CMake Tests Directory ********************* This directory contains the CMake test suite. See also the `CMake Source Code Guide`_. .. _`CMake Source Code Guide`: ../Help/dev/source.rst Many tests exist as immediate subdirectories, but some tests are organized as follows. * ``CMakeLib/``: Source code, used for tests, that links to the ``CMakeLib`` library defined over in ``Source/``. * ``CMakeOnly/``: Deprecated. Tests that run CMake to generate a project but not build it. Superseded by ``Tests/RunCMake/``. * ``Find*/``: Tests for specific find modules that can only be run on machines with the corresponding packages installed. They are enabled in ``CMakeLists.txt`` by undocumented options used on CI builds. * ``Module/``: Tests for specific CMake modules. * ``RunCMake/``: Tests that run CMake and/or other tools while precisely checking their return code and stdout/stderr content. Useful for testing error cases and diagnostic output.
