@DingliZhang According to the building.md documentation:

The supported version of Google Test is 1.8.1, whose source code can be obtained:

 * by downloading and unpacking the source bundle from [here](https://github.com/google/googletest/releases/tag/release-1.8.1)
 * or by checking out `release-1.8.1` tag of `googletest` project: `git clone -b release-1.8.1 https://github.com/google/googletest`

I don't know how old version 1.8.1 is or whether we need to expand on the supported releases here. Maybe the build folk will have an opinion? @magicus or @erikj79 .
