| .. versionadded:: 3.19 | |
| :command:`add_test` supports arbitrary characters in test names. | |
| :command:`add_test` can now (officially) create tests with whitespace and | |
| other special characters in its name. Before CMake version 3.19 that was not | |
| allowed, however, it was possible to work around this limitation by explicitly | |
| putting escaped quotes around the test's name in the ``add_test`` command. | |
| Although never officially supported several projects in the wild found and | |
| implemented this workaround. However, the new change which officially allows | |
| the ``add_test`` command to support whitespace and other special characters in | |
| test names now breaks that workaround. In order for these projects to work | |
| smoothly with newer CMake versions, this policy was introduced. | |
| The ``OLD`` behavior of this policy is to still prevent ``add_test`` from | |
| handling whitespace and special characters properly (if not using the | |
| mentioned workaround). The ``NEW`` behavior on the other hand allows names | |
| with whitespace and special characters for tests created by ``add_test``. | |
