[CMake] Forcing CMake to place targets in directories?

[Mike Jackson]

CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR denotes your source tree and NOT the build
tree. Are you building in your source tree instead of using a
dedicated build directory?

To answer your code you are setting the output directory of where the
executable will be placed in a directory called "test_projects" at the
top level of your build tree.
