When building Google Test as a standalone project, the typical workflow starts
with:
mkdir mybuild # Create a directory to hold the build output.
cd mybuild
cmake ${GTEST_DIR} # Generate native build scripts.
If you want to build Google Test's samples, you should replace the last command
with
cmake -Dgtest_build_samples=ON ${GTEST_DIR}
git clone https://github.com/google/googletest.git -b release-1.10.0

#### Incorporating Into An Existing CMake Project
If you want to use gtest in a project which already uses CMake, then a more
robust and flexible approach is to build gtest as part of that project directly.
This is done by making the GoogleTest source code available to the main build
and adding it using CMake's `add_subdirectory()` command. This has the
significant advantage that the same compiler and linker settings are used
between gtest and the rest of your project, so issues associated with using
incompatible libraries (eg debug/release), etc. are avoided. This is
The easiest way to use Google Test is importing installed libraries and headers.
* Import Google Test by using `find_package` (or `pkg_check_modules`).
For example, if `find_package(GTest CONFIG REQUIRED)` is succeed,
you can use the libraries as `GTest::gtest`, `GTest::gmock`.
