CTRL4TestNG: Current Test Result Logger for TestNG

CTRL4TestNG provides an SLF4J Logger that can be used from any TestNG method tied to an ITestResult, namely Before, After, and Test annotations. Each separate method will have its own unique Logger and can be used with TestNG's parallel testing support making it clear which logs came from which method even when data-driven.

CTRL4TestNG: Current Test Result Logger for TestNG

The Current Test Result Logger for TestNG (CTRL4TestNG) provides an SLF4J Logger that can be used from any TestNG method tied to an ITestResult (i.e. methods annotated as Test, BeforeClass, AfterClass, etc.). Each separate method will have its own unique Logger and can be used with TestNG's parallel testing support making it clear which logs came from which method even when data-driven by means of DataProviders and/or Factories.

Usage

Simply change your SLF4J Logger initializations in your code to use CTRL4TestNG's LOGGER constant instead of SLF4J's LoggerFactory. See CTRL4TestNGExampleTest for an example including example output.

As CTRL4TestNG's LOGGER constant is a public static you can also use it through static import.

Logger Category Format

CTRL4TestNG forwards logging requests to a unique Logger for each Before/After/Test TestNG method. Each method's logger is named using the following format:

[method-name]{[method-parameters]} on [class-instance-string] in [xml-suite-name]

The class-instance-string is either the test class's toString() return value, if overriden, or the test class's simple name.

Example Output

The following example output is from running CTRL4TestNGExampleTest with TestNG.

11:11:09.335 [main] INFO  log{} on DataDrivenClass{message=message 1} in ctrl4testng - message 1
