Description

[test.log](https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/files/10576397/test.log)
[build.log](https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/files/10576402/build.log)

I am trying to install SAOTrace package developed by Chandra X-ray Center.

When I run the installation, Catch2 is built correctly as seen in the build.log. But it fails to run test as shown in the test.log:
```
make: the '-j' option requires a positive integer argument
make: *** No rule to make target 'test'. Stop.
```
How shall I proceed with this step?

Research direction

Start by reading the attached test.log and build.log, then inspect the SAOTrace installation step that invokes make. Determine whether the failure comes from Catch2 or the surrounding package, and document a reproducible diagnosis or the missing project configuration needed for the test target.
