I'm test-driving CMake for a new project I've just started and I'm currently trying to set up a unit test framework. The project is a dynamic library written in C++, the unit tests are based on Boost test, and the project tree is organized essentially as follows:

.
├── CMakeLists.txt
├── mylibrary
│   ├── CMakeLists.txt
│   └── sample.c++
└── unit_tests
    ├── CMakeLists.txt
    └── test_sample.c++



I believe that I've managed to get things up and running, but in the process I've stumbled on an issue.

Apparently, if I call the enable_testing() macro within ${Project}/unit_tests/CMakeLists.txt, calling make test does nothing, and the following error message is shown:

    make: *** No rule to make target `test'.  Stop.


Yet, if enable_testing() is called from ${Project}/CMakeLists.txt, calling make test runs as expected.

Am I missing something?



Thanks
