Running Tests from the math library

Running tests in the Stan Math Library require these libraries, which are all included in the repository:

• Boost
• Eigen
• Google Test
• CppLint (optional)

No additional configuration is necessary to start running with the default libraries.

If you want to use custom locations for the library locations, set these makefile variables:

• EIGEN
• BOOST
• GTEST
• CPPLINT (optional)

Example ~/.config/stan/make.local file:

BOOST = ~/boost

If you see this message:

------------------------------------------------------------
make generate-tests -s
test/prob/generate_tests.cpp:9:10: fatal error: 'boost/algorithm/string.hpp' file not found
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
         ^
1 error generated.
make: *** [test/prob/generate_tests] Error 1
make generate-tests -s failed

the library paths have not been configured correctly.
