 ### Building and Running Unit Tests
 We use GTest to run unit tests. You can build the tests with 
 ``` 
-cmake -S . -B build
+cd glider
+cmake -S . -B build -DBUILD_TESTS=ON
 cmake --build build
 ```
 and run with:
 ```
 cd build 
 ctest
 ```
+Note these tests are run on PR's and pushes to the primary branch.
