Hi,

We have a test case suite setup to run in continuous mode and submit to CDash. 
I followed instructions on the wiki 
(http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Scripting_Of_CTest#Continuous_Builds_.28new_Style.29)
 and have a script that's below the signature. 

I was under the impression that continuous testing would run once when it 
started each run, then sleep and check for changed files and if nothing 
changed, go back to sleep and wait again, then check again, etc.. And if files 
did change and ctest_update() pulled in new code, the tests would run again.

However, the behavior I am getting is that the entire test suite is run every 5 
minutes for the entire continuous run time, even though no files are being 
updated. Some of the tests are failing, if that makes a difference. 

Was I mistaken on how it works? Or did I miss a step somewhere? Thanks,

Tim
