If you have not run ./configure after installing libcppunit-dev, then go 
back to that step _before_ running "make" and "make check" again:

     ./configure ... && make && make check

BTW, if you are building Squid v7+ on a system with N CPU cores, run 
"make -jN" instead of just "make" to speed things up.
