CMake does not provide the run/test launcher in the file api
CMake offers the file API for integration in IDEs. In order to be able to execute cross-compiled applications there directly, for example, the start or test starter specified with CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR is currently missing. See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-29880 for a corresponding request for Qt Creator.
The idea is to extend the "target" object of the code model of the cmake file api with a corresponding attribute that can be queried by the IDEs.
