Documentation about compile/run was given in the cmake output on
make-based platforms, and on the Developer's Corner page, but indeed
one can put more doc on the wiki.

Documentation about how to write a test was on Developers Corner wiki
page, indeed it needs an update.

But don't you use make-based platforms like e.g. linux?
See the bottom of the root CMakeLists.txt.
I'm interested to know why you didn't see it, as you're probably not
the only one.
