Yes, but having the porters add the test target manually means they risked
their system first.

If the framework automatically adds the test target, there is no way of knowing
that it won't simply trash the system of a user, as they were the first to run
`make test` in that port.

So, by not providing it, we kind of force the porters to make sure the tests
are sane.


But as said, I would prefer to have it in cmake.mk, it's just I really feel bad
about it.
