Directly invoking make coverage-report as a target results in an error because its prerequisites are missing, This patch adds the compile-test prerequisite, which is run only once each time the compile-report target is invoked. In practice, the developer may decide to review the coverage-report results without necessarily rerunning for this coverage-test, if it has already been run.
