# get_test_property

Get a property of the test.

    get_test_property(test property VAR)

Get a property from the test. The value of the property is stored in the variable `VAR`. If the test property is not found, the behavior depends on whether it has been defined to be an `INHERITED` property or not (see `define_property()`). Non-inherited properties will set `VAR` to "NOTFOUND", whereas inherited properties will search the relevant parent scope as described for the `define_property()` command and if still unable to find the property, `VAR` will be set to an empty string.

For a list of standard properties you can type `cmake --help-property-list`.
