Create a custom executable. You can get set your build settings to build any target, then set the executable to launch your renamed binary for testing and debugging. The executable can be anything and doesn't even have to be a product of your project. The canonical example is a project that produces a plug-in, but to debug it one must launch the host application that loads the plug-in.
