Summary:                    CMake documentation for CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS wrongly
states it only works with Makefile generator: it also works with Ninja
Description: 
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/module/CTest.html
...
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.2/module/CTest.html

"(Currently the CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS option is ignored on non-Makefile
generators.)"

But since
https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/commit/965358fcf64cf1a3693bcdd66f723729e0614ef6
Ninja generator is also supported. According to github it should work for cmake
>= 2.8.11.
This should be reflected in the documentation.
(There maybe other locations with this incorrect statement...)
