-Configure, build, and test a [CMake](https://cmake.org/) project on [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions).
-Use this action to simplify the workflow run of your CMake project.
-This action will configure a build environment for your project using the `cmake` command,
-  then it will build your project by running a `cmake --build` command,
-  and last it could test your project using the `ctest` command.
+Configure, build, and test your [CMake](https://cmake.org/) project using [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions). This action simplifies the workflow for your CMake project. It configures the build environment using the `cmake` command, and optionally builds the project using the `cmake --build` command and tests the project using the `ctest` command.
 
 ## Features
 
-- Configure and build a project using the [cmake](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake.1.html) command.
-- Optionally test a project using the [ctest](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/ctest.1.html) command.
-- Auto-detect and install required dependencies.
-- Specify multiple CMake options directly from the Action inputs.
+- Configures a project using the [`cmake`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake.1.html) command.
+- Option to build a project using the `cmake --build` command.
+- Option to test a project using the [`ctest`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/ctest.1.html) command.
+- Auto-detects and installs required dependencies.
+- Supports specifying multiple CMake options directly from the Action inputs.
 
 ## Usage
 
-For more information, see [action.yml](./action.yml) and [GitHub Actions guide](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/understanding-github-actions).
