qmake: How do I copy .dll/.so's to the output directory?

Question

I have a Qt-project that builds a dll/shared-library and another Qt-project that tests the library. Is there any good way to have qmake copy the dll to the output-folder of the test-project?

Accepted Answer

Add this to your pro file:

```
target.path = ../testProject/$$TARGET
INSTALLS += target 
```
