I just downloaded googletest, generated its makefile with CMake and built it. Now, I need to use it in my testing project.

With CMake, I have been advised not pointing to gtest libraries directly (using include _directories or link_directories) but use find_package() instead.

The problem is, there is no install target for the gtest makefile generated. I cannot understand how find_package(GTest REQUIRED) could work without some kind of installation. Also, putting the gtest folder as a subfolder in my project is not possible.

Thanks for any help.

cmake googletest
