Does the boost unit test frame work provide a way to write a test that executes a couple of shell commands?

Specifically, I want to write a test that compiles a cmake project:

Nope, you have to use cmake tools for that.

I'm not asking b2 / boost test to understand and process a cmake file. Just to execute some shell commands and run a executable that is installed on the system. Best Mike
