I am trying to add my first unit test to an existing Open Source project. Specifically, I added a new class, called audio_manager:

src/audio/audio_manager.h
src/audio/audio_manager.cc

I created a src/test directory structure that mirrors the structure of the implementation files, and wrote my googletest unit tests:

src/test/audio/audio_manager.cc

Now, I am trying to set up my Makefile.am to compile and run the unit test:

src/test/audio/Makefile.am

I copied Makefile.am from:

src/audio/Makefile.am

Does anyone have a simple recipe for me, or is it to the cryptic automake documentation for me? :)
