Build from source succeed but test core failed on windows (C++, CMake)

EDIT:
if I hit the ignore button instead of retry on the assertion dialog I get the following exist code:

 1/39 Test  #1: opencv_test_core .................Exit code 0xc0000409

This was not the case when I did for example the Release build as it was just saying test failed without anything else.

Original Post:
I am trying to build OpenCV from source on windows 11. Here is how I do it:

> git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/opencv/opencv.git && cd opencv
cmake -GNinja -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug .
cmake --build build
cmake --build build --target test

and this gets me the following output for a while(45 minutes or so):

W:\opencv>cmake --build build\ --target test
[0/1] Running tests...Test project W:/opencv/build
      Start  1: opencv_test_core

then I get the following image:
image

and on the command line I get:

 1/39 Test  #1: opencv_test_core .................***Failed

any ideas why is that the case?
my cl.exe version is Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.39.33523 for x64
cmake version 3.28.1
ninja --version
1.11.1

Please let me know if there are any ways I can provide more information and if there is any wrong with my build environment (I followed basic instruction here: OpenCV: OpenCV installation overview)

Where do you find target test?

cmake --build --target install

I am not sure I understand what you mean by: “where did you find target test”. I just run the tests (since such a large project always has test suite, I just run the target tests as a common practice when building any large software) was I not supposed to run tests?
I don’t want to globally install opencv on my system, I would like to include it locally in my project.

I updated the question with a new exist error code that might be useful.

I don’t know what is target test for opencv.
Now you already build opencv with cmake --build build
What do you want to do with test?

If you want to run test follow tutorial :

Build tests, samples and applications

There are two kinds of tests: accuracy (opencv_test_*) and performance (opencv_perf_*). Tests and applications are enabled by default. Examples are not being built by default and should be enabled explicitly.

Corresponding cmake options:

cmake \

-DBUILD_TESTS=ON \

-DBUILD_PERF_TESTS=ON \

-DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON \

-DBUILD_opencv_apps=ON \

…/opencv

Okay, so if my understanding is correct, if the tests failed, it means my building for libs/exe/includes are corrupted one way or another. So, the reason I run the tests is that I want to ensure if I encounter any seg-fault or the like, or any weird output, it would be because I had a logic bug in my code and not because the building of the library gone wrong.

Is this concept wrong here?

test failed on windows only

linux :

[----------] 1 test from Core_reduceArgMinMax/ElemWiseTest
[ RUN      ] Core_reduceArgMinMax/ElemWiseTest.accuracy/0, where GetParam() = 16-byte object <A0-E6 B9-8B 10-56 00-00 10-AC BF-8B 10-56 00-00>
[       OK ] Core_reduceArgMinMax/ElemWiseTest.accuracy/0 (207 ms)
[----------] 1 test from Core_reduceArgMinMax/ElemWiseTest (211 ms total)

Windows
