1FIXTURES_CLEANUP
2----------------
3
4.. versionadded:: 3.7
5
6Specifies a list of fixtures for which the test is to be treated as a cleanup
7test. These fixture names are distinct from test case names and are not
8required to have any similarity to the names of tests associated with them.
9
10Fixture cleanup tests are ordinary tests with all of the usual test
11functionality. Setting the ``FIXTURES_CLEANUP`` property for a test has two
12primary effects:
13
14- CTest will ensure the test executes after all other tests which list any of
15  the fixtures in its :prop_test:`FIXTURES_REQUIRED` property.
16
17- If CTest is asked to run only a subset of tests (e.g. using regular
18  expressions or the ``--rerun-failed`` option) and the cleanup test is not in
19  the set of tests to run, it will automatically be added if any tests in the
20  set require any fixture listed in ``FIXTURES_CLEANUP``.
21
22A cleanup test can have multiple fixtures listed in its ``FIXTURES_CLEANUP``
23property. It will execute only once for the whole CTest run, not once for each
24fixture. A fixture can also have more than one cleanup test defined. If there
25are multiple cleanup tests for a fixture, projects can control their order with
26the usual :prop_test:`DEPENDS` test property if necessary.
27
28A cleanup test is allowed to require other fixtures, but not any fixture listed
29in its ``FIXTURES_CLEANUP`` property. For example:
30
31.. code-block:: cmake
32
33  # Ok: Dependent fixture is different to cleanup
34  set_tests_properties(cleanupFoo PROPERTIES
35    FIXTURES_CLEANUP  Foo
36    FIXTURES_REQUIRED Bar
37  )
38
39  # Error: cannot require same fixture as cleanup
40  set_tests_properties(cleanupFoo PROPERTIES
41    FIXTURES_CLEANUP  Foo
42    FIXTURES_REQUIRED Foo
43  )
44
45Cleanup tests will execute even if setup or regular tests for that fixture fail
46or are skipped.
47
48See :prop_test:`FIXTURES_REQUIRED` for a more complete discussion of how to use
49test fixtures.
