     ``EXTRA_ARGS --gtest_output=xml`` to avoid race conditions writing the
     XML result output when using parallel test execution.
 
+  ``DISCOVERY_MODE``
+    Provides greater control over when ``gtest_discover_tests``performs test
+    discovery. By default, ``POST_BUILD`` sets up a post-build command
+    to perform test discovery at build time. In certain scenarios, like
+    cross-compiling, this ``POST_BUILD`` behavior is not desirable.
+    By contrast, ``PRE_TEST`` delays test discovery until just prior to test
+    execution. This way test discovery occurs in the target environment
+    where the test has a better chance at finding appropriate runtime
+    dependencies.
+
+    ``DISCOVERY_MODE`` defaults to the value of the
+    ``CMAKE_GTEST_DISCOVER_TESTS_DISCOVERY_MODE`` variable if it is not
+    passed when calling ``gtest_discover_tests``. This provides a mechanism
+    for globally selecting a preferred test discovery behavior without having
+    to modify each call site.
