[CMake] tests running out of order on cmake

[Michael Wild]

If the tests depend on each other, you *must* tell CTest so, by setting
the DEPENDS property using the set_tests_properties() function.

Normally, running tests in arbitrary order is considered to be a
feature, helping you to not to introduce accidental dependencies.
