Add a way to run a test preset

[quyykk]

Brief Issue Summary

After the test explorer feature, it looks like I can't run a test preset anymore. Clicking on "Run CTest" just opens the test explorer with a list of tests, instead of running the selected test preset like it was before.

I also couldn't find a way to run the selected test preset in any other way.

I think clicking the run all tests button (or run test button for a certain folder) after the test explorer opens runs the tests under the currently selected test preset?

after the test explorer opens

So I have to click the button twice? That seems not great (Sorry I can't test it right now)

[xisui-MSFT]

No, there's a run all button in the test explorer.

@snehara99 I have moved this to the 1.16 release and milestone. It seems that this may be more of a request on the status bar button action to do a direct action rather than open the Test Explorer.

We will triage and assess our course of action in 1.16.

We are working on a fix for this issue, but in the meantime you should be able to run your test presets using the Project Status View

Hello @quyykk, if you install the newest version of the pre-release channel, you should now be able to use the Run CTests button like before, bypassing the test explorer. Please try it out and let me know if this solves your issue, thanks!

Hello this feature should now be available on the main channel, so I'm going to close this issue as complete. Please create a new issue if you encounter any new problems or if you have other requests. Thanks!
