[CMake] How do I run different sets of tests?

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hi Vingesh,

You can run ctest using several flags to control which tests will run. 
The CTest tutorial has a section on that:
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Testing_With_CTest#Running_Individual_Tests

Currently you cannot specify the toplevel DartTestfile.txt yet. It is 
planned for some future release.

The -C option refers to the Visual Studio and Xcode configuration 
options. Both Visual Studio and Xcode use the same build files for all 
configurations, such as Debug, Release, ...
