[Boost-testing] How to make Boost.Test Automatic Test Registration facility work together with Boost Regression Tests?

Hello, All!

I developed Test Case which is run under Boost Regression
  Tests? The Test Case is build based on Boost.Test Automatic
Registration facility. The test consist of checks which should
fail. As result of bjam invokation of Test Case I see there is
no error which I expect. There is also no output to console,
even if I output some data in the Test Case.

Is it possible to use Boost.Test automatic registration
  facility together with Boost Regression Tests?

*****This is the content of the Test Case(autoRegTestsSample.cpp)
#define BOOST_AUTO_TEST_MAIN
#include "boost/test/auto_unit_test.hpp"
#include "boost/test/included/unit_test_framework.hpp"
#include "boost/test/unit_test_log.hpp"

BOOST_AUTO_UNIT_TEST(testEqual)
{
   // HERE I EXPECT SOME OUTPUT TO CONSOLE
   std::cout << "autoRegTestsSample" << std::endl;
   BOOST_MESSAGE("message in TestEqual");
   const long l = 3;
   BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(l, 3L);
}

BOOST_AUTO_UNIT_TEST(testError)
{
   BOOST_WARN("warning 1");
   // HERE I EXPECT ERROR
   BOOST_ERROR("invoking error 1");
}

*****This is bjam output
