.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.name`:

``name``
  A required string representing the machine-friendly name of the
  preset. This identifier is used in the :option:`ctest --preset`
  option. There must not be two test presets in the union of
  ``CMakePresets.json`` and ``CMakeUserPresets.json`` in the same
  directory with the same name. However, a test preset may have the
  same name as a configure, build, package, or workflow preset.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.hidden`:

``hidden``
  An optional boolean specifying whether or not a preset should be
  hidden. If a preset is hidden, it cannot be used in the
  :ctest-option:`--preset` argument and does not have to have a valid
  :preset:`testPresets.configurePreset`, even from
  inheritance. ``hidden`` presets are intended to be used as a base
  for other presets to inherit via the
  :preset:`testPresets.inherits` field.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.inherits`:

``inherits``
  An optional array of strings representing the names of presets from which
  to inherit. This field can also be a string, which is equivalent to an
  array containing one string.

  The preset will inherit all of the fields from the ``inherits`` presets
  by default (except ``name``, ``hidden``, ``inherits``, ``description``,
  and ``displayName``), but can override them as desired. If multiple
  ``inherits`` presets provide conflicting values for the same field, the
  earlier preset in the ``inherits`` array will be preferred.

  A preset can only inherit from another preset that is defined in the same
  file or in one of the files it includes (directly or indirectly). Presets
  in ``CMakePresets.json`` may not inherit from presets in
  ``CMakeUserPresets.json``.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.condition`:

``condition``
  .. presets-versionadded:: 3

  An optional `Condition`_ object.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.vendor`:

``vendor``
  An optional map containing vendor-specific information. CMake does not
  interpret the contents of this field except to verify that it is a map if
  it does exist. However, it should follow the same conventions as the
  root-level ``vendor`` field. If vendors use their own per-preset
  ``vendor`` field, they should implement inheritance in a sensible manner
  when appropriate.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.displayName`:

``displayName``
  An optional string with a human-friendly name of the preset.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.description`:

``description``
  An optional string with a human-friendly description of the preset.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.environment`:

``environment``
  An optional map of environment variables. The key is the variable name
  (which may not be an empty string), and the value is either ``null`` or a
  string representing the value of the variable. Each variable is set
  regardless of whether or not a value was given to it by the process's
  environment.

  This field supports `macro expansion`_, and environment variables in this
  map may reference each other, and may be listed in any order, as long as
  such references do not cause a cycle (for example, if ``ENV_1`` is
  ``$env{ENV_2}``, ``ENV_2`` may not be ``$env{ENV_1}``). ``$penv{NAME}``
  allows one to prepend or append values to existing environment variables
  by accessing only values from the parent environment.

  Environment variables are inherited through the ``inherits`` field, and
  the preset's environment will be the union of its own ``environment`` and
  the ``environment`` from all its parents. If multiple presets in this
  union define the same variable, the standard rules of ``inherits`` are
  applied. Setting a variable to ``null`` causes it to not be set, even if
  a value was inherited from another preset.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.configurePreset`:

``configurePreset``
  An optional string specifying the name of a configure preset to
  associate with this test preset. If ``configurePreset`` is not
  specified, it must be inherited from the inherits preset (unless
  this preset is hidden). The build directory is inferred from the
  configure preset, so tests will run in the same ``binaryDir`` that
  the configuration and build used.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.inheritConfigureEnvironment`:

``inheritConfigureEnvironment``
  An optional boolean that defaults to ``true``. If ``true``, the
  environment variables from the associated configure preset are
  inherited after all inherited test preset environments, but before
  environment variables explicitly specified in this test preset.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.configuration`:

``configuration``
  An optional string. Equivalent to passing
  :ctest-option:`--build-config` on the command line.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.overwriteConfigurationFile`:

``overwriteConfigurationFile``
  An optional array of configuration options to overwrite options
  specified in the CTest configuration file. Equivalent to passing
  :ctest-option:`--overwrite` for each value in the array. The array
  values support `macro expansion`_.

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.output`:

``output``
  An optional object specifying output options.
  The object may contain the following fields:

  .. include:: presets/testOutput-properties.rst

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.filter`:

``filter``
  An optional object specifying how to filter the tests to run.
  The object may contain the following fields:

  .. include:: presets/filter-properties.rst

.. _`CMakePresets.testPresets.execution`:

``execution``
  An optional object specifying options for test execution.
  The object may contain the following fields:

  .. include:: presets/execution-properties.rst
