CTest documentation seems to be lacking but a quick test indicates
that return value is how it determines success.

So you should do something like this.

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
   int success;
   success = do_test();
   if(success)
    return 0;
  return 1;
}

I also suggest that for clarity we place the tests in their own file,
such as test.cmake and then include that from CMakeLists.txt.
