The googletest packages on Xenial are:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial/gtest-dev
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/devel/google-mock

You don't need libgwen-gtk3, just get 
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/libgwenhywfar60-dev
and GnuCash will build libgwen-gtk3 for you.

Regards,
John Ralls
