You'd need to shove the file into a library and add the <lib>yyy to the 
sources. Ex.:

lib test_tools : test_tools.cpp : (needed requirements) : <suppress>true ;

rule run-template ( test-name : sources * : requirements * ) { 

   return [ 

   run 

   <lib>../../test/build/boost_unit_test_framework 

   <lib>../../filesystem/build/boost_filesystem 

   <lib>test_tools
   $(sources) test_tools.cpp 

   : # command 

   : # 

   : # requirements 

   std::locale-support 

   toolset::require-boost-spirit-support 

   <borland*><*><cxxflags>"-w-8080 -w-8071 -w-8057 -w-8062 -w-8008 
-w-0018 -w-8066"
   $(requirements) 

   : # test name 

   $(test-name) 

   : # default-build 

   debug 

   ] ; 

}
