[CMake] Can't run units test defined in subdirectories

Okay, I changed the add_test command to:
add_test(${Name} ${EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH}/${Name})
Now, when I try to build the RUN_TESTS target I get results like this:
Start processing tests
Test project /Projects/MyProject/build
1/ 1 Testing TestLibrary ***Failed
0% tests passed, 1 tests failed out of 1
The following tests FAILED:
1 - TestLibrary (Failed)
Errors while running CTest
make: *** [RUN_TESTS_buildpart_0] Error 8
It is unclear why an error like this is occurring. The test application
runs successfully when launched manually.
How can I fix this problem so the test runs properly?
