Before this patch there were a few ways to build tests - Configure all tests as part of the repo build - Configure all tests as part of the repo build, but don't build tests by default (-DQT_NO_MAKE_TESTS=ON) - Configure all tests as a standalone project in a separate build dir using -QT_BUILD_STANDALONE_TESTS=ON All of the above incur some time overhead due to the necessity of configuring all tests. Sometimes you just want to build ONE test (or a few). To facilitate that use case, a new shell script called bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test(.bat) can now be used to configure and build one or more tests. The script takes one single argument pointing to the desired test project path and configures a generic template project that sets up all the necessary Qt CMake private API, afterwards calling add_subdirectory on the passed in project. Example $ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image/qicon or $ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image After that, simply run 'ninja && ctest' to build and run the test(s). This is the CMake equivalent of calling qmake on a test .pro file (or on a tests SUBDIRS .pro file) There are 3 details worth mentioning. Due to the add_subdirectory call, the built artifacts will not be in the top-level build dir, but rather in a nested build_dir. The script currently can't handle more than one argument (the path to the project), so you can't pass additional -DFoo=bar arguments. If a test uses a 3rd party library (like Threads::Threads) which was not a public dependency for any of the Qt modules, configuration will fail saying that the target was not found. Perhaps we should consider recording these packages when generating the StandaloneConfig.cmake files.
