Why is the CMakeLists.txt not in the 'test' subdirectory, since it 
    appears from your explanation that the file is used for the tests ?
Its used to install the library as well.

Please add these explanations to Fit as you are not using Boost 
    build to 
    build the doc or run the tests.
I will add them.
Also, I tried to add an initial Jamfile to build and run the tests as 
well. I 
just modified the Jamfile from other boost libraries. However, I haven't 
figured out how to run the tests yet using bjam to test my Jamfile. I
get
...
"error: Did not find Jamfile.jam or Jamroot.jam in any parent 
directory". I am 
not sure how I am supposed to run the tests. 
You can try to copy the ones in https://github.com/viboes/std-make
I will try to help you this evening,
Thanks for the help, I got a working bjam there to build the tests. Of 
course,
the next thing to do is to add them to the CI. However, it seems that other
boost libraries only tests using cmake. I will look into that further.
