gtest setup cmake to get it run - c++

Question

I want to include gtest to my C++ project. I am using Clion as IDE, which should work. Some tests are already working, but I cannot use any functions from B_RocChoice.h. It says that the function is not declared in this scope.
Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong? How I must change my CMakeLists.txt files that it recogizes my methods?
This is my basic_tests.cpp, where my testcases will be written.
This is my Directory.
Here, the most outer CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project(cli)
find_package( OpenCV REQUIRED )
include_directories( ${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS} )

I'm assuming your compiler is complaining it can't find the B_RocChoices.h header? Your question seems to imply the compiler error is about not finding a function, but B_RocChoices is a header and not a function in your basic_tests.cpp file.
Assuming your problem is that the compiler isn't finding the B_RocChoices.h header, I expect that when you include_directories(../../include) you are wanting to make the directory where B_RocChoices.h resides part of the header search path. This is a relative path, so it depends where the compiler is being run from as to what path it means (it wouldn't work if you were doing out of source builds, for example). Try using either CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR or CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR to define the path unambiguously. For example:
include_directories(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/include)
If you are using CMake 2.8.11 or later, I'd recommend you consider using target_include_directories() instead and probably also read up on target_link_libraries(). Together, these allow you to make the header search paths and linked libraries specific to a target rather than global to all targets. Lastly, if you prefer to download GoogleTest as part of your build rather than embedding it directly in your project sources, you may find the following link useful:
