Hello all,

I would like to test a property of my system (actually if an MPI
function works well). And only if it does, I will launch a part of my
tests. If not, only the main part will execute.

So I was thinking that the best solution would be to ADD_TEST
something that will look at my MPI function, and next, get the result
of this test, and if it's ok, ADD_TEST other tests. But I didn't find
anything about reading test results during the execution of the tests.
Is it possible ?

I suggest using normal CMake BOOLEAN logic to set up conditional ADD_TEST's.
That is, use EXECUTE_PROCESS in ordinary cmake code to determine if the MPI
function works well.  Store results in a CMake variable such as MPI_WORKS
(ON or OFF).  Then ADD_TEST your various components depending on the value
of MPI_WORKS.

We use this general method (normal BOOLEAN logic) to set up our various
ADD_TEST's in PLplot.
