ctest_start
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Starts the testing for a given model
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(<model> [<source> [<binary>]] [GROUP <group>] [QUIET])
|
|
|
|
ctest_start([<model> [<source> [<binary>]]] [GROUP <group>] APPEND [QUIET])
|
|
|
|
Starts the testing for a given model. The command should be called
|
|
after the binary directory is initialized.
|
|
|
|
The parameters are as follows:
|
|
|
|
``<model>``
|
|
Set the dashboard model. Must be one of ``Experimental``, ``Continuous``, or
|
|
``Nightly``. This parameter is required unless ``APPEND`` is specified.
|
|
|
|
``<source>``
|
|
Set the source directory. If not specified, the value of
|
|
:variable:`CTEST_SOURCE_DIRECTORY` is used instead.
|
|
|
|
``<binary>``
|
|
Set the binary directory. If not specified, the value of
|
|
:variable:`CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY` is used instead.
|
|
|
|
``GROUP <group>``
|
|
If ``GROUP`` is used, the submissions will go to the specified group on the
|
|
CDash server. If no ``GROUP`` is specified, the name of the model is used by
|
|
default.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.16
|
|
This replaces the deprecated option ``TRACK``. Despite the name
|
|
change its behavior is unchanged.
|
|
|
|
``APPEND``
|
|
If ``APPEND`` is used, the existing ``TAG`` is used rather than creating a new
|
|
one based on the current time stamp. If you use ``APPEND``, you can omit the
|
|
``<model>`` and ``GROUP <group>`` parameters, because they will be read from
|
|
the generated ``TAG`` file. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(Experimental GROUP GroupExperimental)
|
|
|
|
Later, in another ``ctest -S`` script:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(APPEND)
|
|
|
|
When the second script runs ``ctest_start(APPEND)``, it will read the
|
|
``Experimental`` model and ``GroupExperimental`` group from the ``TAG`` file
|
|
generated by the first ``ctest_start()`` command. Please note that if you
|
|
call ``ctest_start(APPEND)`` and specify a different model or group than
|
|
in the first ``ctest_start()`` command, a warning will be issued, and the
|
|
new model and group will be used.
|
|
|
|
``QUIET``
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.3
|
|
|
|
If ``QUIET`` is used, CTest will suppress any non-error messages that it
|
|
otherwise would have printed to the console.
|
|
|
|
The parameters for ``ctest_start()`` can be issued in any order, with the
|
|
exception that ``<model>``, ``<source>``, and ``<binary>`` have to appear
|
|
in that order with respect to each other. The following are all valid and
|
|
equivalent:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(Experimental path/to/source path/to/binary GROUP SomeGroup QUIET APPEND)
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(GROUP SomeGroup Experimental QUIET path/to/source APPEND path/to/binary)
|
|
|
|
ctest_start(APPEND QUIET Experimental path/to/source GROUP SomeGroup path/to/binary)
|
|
|
|
However, for the sake of readability, it is recommended that you order your
|
|
parameters in the order listed at the top of this page.
|
|
|
|
If the :variable:`CTEST_CHECKOUT_COMMAND` variable (or the
|
|
:variable:`CTEST_CVS_CHECKOUT` variable) is set, its content is treated as
|
|
command-line. The command is invoked with the current working directory set
|
|
to the parent of the source directory, even if the source directory already
|
|
exists. This can be used to create the source tree from a version control
|
|
repository.
