netCDF make command test?

I need to install netCDF and graDs in linux to be able to run another program , but I am not familiar with them , I have just configured and make them but I didn't get any message which contains : successfully make or sth like that.

output of Make :

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples/C'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples/C'
Making all in CDL
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples/CDL'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples/CDL'
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0/examples'
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nazanin/Downloads/netcdf-4.3.0'

Does it mean that the "make" command worked properly,or there is sth wrong? and is there any "test" for it?

I am a very beginner in Ubuntu linux.

Thank you.

Yes your make work correctly.

To test, try make check.

To install, try make install.

Since you are compiling with autotools, you would typically use make check to run the tests. Please note that there is a known failure in the DAP tests for versions 4.3.0 through 4.3.1.1, related to a change in the Unidata netcdf test servers.

I will mention that netcdf 4.3.0 is fairly old. The latest stable release, v4.3.1.1 may be downloaded here:

http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases

There is also a release candidate for the next release, v4.3.2 available, and a second release candidate should be available later today or tomorrow. There have been a number of bug fixes since 4.3.0 that you may be interested in :).

Its better for you to install netCDF and graDs by following commands :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install netcdf*
sudo apt-get install grads
