| CTEST_PROGRESS_OUTPUT |
| --------------------- |
| |
| .. include:: ENV_VAR.txt |
| |
| Boolean environment variable that affects how :manual:`ctest <ctest(1)>` |
| command output reports overall progress. When set to ``1``, ``TRUE``, ``ON`` or anything |
| else that evaluates to boolean true, progress is reported by repeatedly |
| updating the same line. This greatly reduces the overall verbosity, but is |
| only supported when output is sent directly to a terminal. If the environment |
| variable is not set or has a value that evaluates to false, output is reported |
| normally with each test having its own start and end lines logged to the |
| output. |
| |
| The ``--progress`` option to :manual:`ctest <ctest(1)>` overrides this |
| environment variable if both are given. |
