<p>If the test command exits with code <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0</span></code> the test passes. Non-zero exit code

logic. Note that system-level test failures such as segmentation faults or
heap errors will still fail the test even if <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">WILL_FALL</span></code> is true. Output
written to stdout or stderr is captured by <span class="target" id="index-1-manual:ctest(1)"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../manual/ctest.1.html#manual:ctest(1)" title="ctest(1)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ctest(1)</span></code></a> and only

<p>Example usage:</p>
<div class="highlight-cmake notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nf">add_test(</span><span class="no">NAME</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">mytest</span>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This creates a test <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">mytest</span></code> whose command runs a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">testDriver</span></code> tool
passing the configuration name and the full path to the executable
file produced by target <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">myexe</span></code>.</p>
<hr class="docutils" />
<p>The command syntax above is recommended over the older, less flexible form:</p>
<div class="highlight-cmake notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nf">add_test(</span><span class="nv">&lt;name&gt;</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nv">&lt;command&gt;</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">[</span><span class="nv">&lt;arg&gt;...</span><span class="p">]</span><span class="nf">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Add a test called <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">&lt;name&gt;</span></code> with the given command-line.</p>
<p>Unlike the above <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NAME</span></code> signature, target names are not supported
in the command-line. Furthermore, tests added with this signature do not
support <span class="target" id="index-4-manual:cmake-generator-expressions(7)"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../manual/cmake-generator-expressions.7.html#manual:cmake-generator-expressions(7)" title="cmake-generator-expressions(7)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">generator</span> <span class="pre">expressions</span></code></a>
in the command-line or test properties.</p>
