Boost.Test show Test durations

I'm using Boost.Test (1.60.0) to test my projects. In order to identify the most time consuming tests, I wanted to know the test duration of every test in milliseconds. The total amount of time consumed by all tests would be also nice.

Does Boost.Test have such a feature? If not how can I implement such a time measurement on my own?

--log_level=unit_scope (or BOOST_TEST_LOG_LEVEL environmental variable)

This doesn't print any test messages but is verbose enough to print durations for each test suite and each test case in any suite.

You did not state which compiler you're using, but the reference to Boost means that it's likely to be gcc.

gcc has built-in support for runtime profiling called gprof. You will find plenty of documentation from a Google search, here's a tutorial to get you started.
