Test Execution Monitor has been deprecated for more than 5 years I believe
(since 1.34). I do not believe it's being used anywhere but internally in boost.

To switch to test framework you really only need to change 2 lines:

#include <boost/test/included/test_execution_monitor.hpp>
to
#include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>

and 

int test_main()
to
BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(test_main)

If no one mind I can go ahead and apply these.
