The documentation here says that the 'test' target exists.

We configue axom with these cmake arguments:
-DCONDUIT_DIR=/usr/local -DHDF5_DIR=/usr/local -DBLT_CXX_STD=c++14 -DLUA_DIR=/usr/local -DFREEBSD_LUA_VER_STR=54 -DFREEBSD_LUA_VER=5.4 -DMFEM_DIR=/usr/local -DENABLE_MPI=ON -DENABLE_OPENMP:BOOL=false -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:STRING="cc" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:STRING="c++" -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing " -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing " -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing " -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing " -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE:STRING="-O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG" -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS:STRING=" -lexecinfo -fstack-protector-strong " -DCMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS:STRING=" -lexecinfo -fstack-protector-strong " -DCMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS:STRING=" -lexecinfo -fstack-protector-strong " -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH="/usr/local" -DCMAKE_AUTOGEN_PARALLEL:STRING="7" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING="Release" -DTHREADS_HAVE_PTHREAD_ARG:BOOL=YES -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=YES -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE:BOOL=ON -DFETCHCONTENT_FULLY_DISCONNECTED:BOOL=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON -DAXOM_ENABLE_DOCS:BOOL=OFF -DAXOM_ENABLE_EXAMPLES:BOOL=OFF -DAXOM_ENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=OFF -DAXOM_ENABLE_EXAMPLES:BOOL=OFF -DMPIEXEC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH="/usr/local/bin/mpiexec" -DMPI_HOME:PATH="/usr/local"

Then we build axom.

Then we re-configure:

Then we build again.

The make test fails:

make: don't know how to make test. Stop

Hello @yurivict , you wrote that you

  • configured axom with several arguments including -DAXOM_ENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=OFF ,
  • built axom,
  • configured axom again with many arguments including
    • -DAXOM_ENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=OFF
    • and later -DAXOM_ENABLE_TESTS:BOOL=ON
  • built axom again,
  • attempted make test, which fails.

For the first configure and build, you did not give the working directory, or the full CMake command line, but since you include those steps, I assume you built in /usr/ports/science/axom/work/.build. I think you have a cached CMake variable AXOM_ENABLE_TESTS=FALSE that disables the tests. I have had greatest success when I remove the CMakeCache.txt file to clear those cached variables, or even remove and re-create my build directory before configuring again.

Please let me know if I missed a detail or misunderstood your workflow. Otherwise, I don't think this is a bug and will close the issue.
