Just wanted to get this PR started. With the new cmake build system in place, I converted nosetests to ctests. Now after building the code with make you can now run make test to test your build. The run_tests.py script has also been modified to support this new testing system.

Tasks left

• Update documentation
• Add some command line options to support some ctest command line options (i.e., -R)
• Be able to run tests in parallel
