This post is a continuation to Boost Unit Test Framework with Multiple Sources

When the following piece of code (borrowed from the aforementioned post)

// test_main.cpp
#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Main
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

// test1.cpp
#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#ifdef STAND_ALONE
#   define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Main
#endif
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(test1_suite)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(Test1)
{
    BOOST_CHECK(2<1);
}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()

// test2.cpp
#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#ifdef STAND_ALONE
#   define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Main
#endif
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(test2_suite)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(Test1)
{
    BOOST_CHECK(1<2);
}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()

is compiled, (as suggested) with 

$ g++ test_main.cpp test1.cpp test2.cpp -lboost_unit_test_framework -o tests

How do I achieve this using Boost.Build (to compile and test from multiple sources for Boost Unit Test Framework using Boost.Build)?

In order to compile and run the unit test with Boost.Build rule unit-test, create the following Jamfile

unit-test test_all
  : [ glob test*.cpp ] /root//boost_test
  ;

and define the libraries in /home/<user>/user-config.jam as follows

project root ;
lib boost_test : : <name>boost_unit_test_framework ;
