Compiling the Unit Test Framework of Boost

I am trying to follow the instructions to compile the unit test framework of Boost (see, the Standalone Compilation section at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_52_0/libs/test/doc/html/utf/compilation/standalone.html ).

But I get the message 'bjam' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file as entering bjam [-sTOOLS=] {-sBUILD=boost_unit_test_framework} into the Windows shell meanwhile this exactly is what the documentation reads.

Isn't there a trick such as now one has to use the command b2 instead of bjam?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Shouldn't you be running "./bjam", to indicate where bjam is (i.e., in the current directory)?

The error messages seems to be suggesting that, but I have little experience with Windows shell.
