Hello,

Could be a simple question this, where can i find the file uploaded using ctest\_upload() in the cdash dashboard? I can see that ctest\_upload() call returns successfully, but I cant seem to find the file in the dashboard anywhere 🙂 I maybe making a stupid mistake, but would appreciate your help.

Thanks

Builds with attached files will show a yellow box icon next to their name on `index.php`.

For example, some of our Experimental ParaView builds upload installers.
