Research direction
Start with the Running the Tests page for the C++ track and review its current Boost guidance. Check whether the linked Visual Studio integrations and comparable popular-IDE addons are still available and appropriate, then update the page with accurate recommendations; done means the documentation reflects supported, working links and clearly scoped guidance.

Description
If the cpp track will be sticking with Boost for unit testing, it may be worth mentioning on the Running the Tests page that there are addons for many popular cpp environments to support boost in a friendlier way.
For example:
If you're developing with a common IDE like Visual Studio, you may wish you install plugins for Boost Testing, if available, that can make unit testing a little friendlier. Here are a few examples for Visual Studio 2017, and Visual Studio 2015.
Note that I've only tried the one for 2017. This could be kept as a VS-only note, or try to find similar addons for other popular IDEs if they need it.
