ERROR (make: *** No rule to make target `check'. Stop.)

Question

I want to download an API called libtrading, the process to download it in terminal is as the follows,

OSX

$ brew install libevent glib pkgconfig
$ pip install pyyaml

Then run:

$ make install

You can also run the test harness:

$ make check

I have successfully processed the first two steps, but when I put 'make install' and 'make check', it always says (make: *** No rule to make target `check'. Stop. )

Does anyone know how can I solve the problem? Is it because some file path is needed here? but I don't know what is it.

Thanks in advance!
