When you're importing a project, KDevelop will show you a dialog where
you can define a build directory and an installation prefix. This
installation prefix is where the project's files will be placed. I
recommend you to install everything in a "kde" folder on your home
directory -- this simplifies things and allows you to test your compiled
binary against the package provided by your distro.

After the project has been imported, build and install it. Then go to
Run > Configure Launches and add a new launching profile in your
project's section. In the "Executable" field, browse through the
directory you defined as your install prefix and look for a "bin"
folder. Select the right binary then click OK

You could also follow the same procedures, with a few modifications,
to build the project on Qt Creator.

You're probably missing something. I'm not an IDE user but, as far as
I know, both Qt Creator and KDevelop have this functionality.
