There is no "legal" way to get what you want in Boost.Test now. I suggest you
file a ticket and I'll consider it for next release.

Meanwhile, the only component which gets any information about warnings is unit
test log. You can "hack" around a bit to get the desired behavior by
implementing custom unit_test_log_formatter.

log_entry_start method receives log_entry_type, which will be equal to
BOOST_UTL_ET_WARNING in case of warning. You can trap this event (don't forget
to forward to the regular formatter after that)

Using framework::current_test_case you can implement your own registry for the
warnings information. Combine it with regular Boost.Test output and you'll get
what you looking for.

HTH,
