Answer 1

Create a script which will run Your app. Something like:

#!/bin/bash
/path/to/executable

Save it, change this to be executable with chmod +x in Terminal or iTerm2 app. Right click on this file and choose Get Info, select the prefered app which will open it (in Your case iTerm2 app). Open Preferences.app, go to Users and Groups -> Login and add Your script there. With this once You login Your script will be opened in iTerm2 app.
