logback-testng

Logback appender for TestNG Reporter

This appender enables users to direct the Logback output from TestNG tests to the TestNG Reporter. This output will be captured in the test result artifacts of each test method. This appender extends the standard OutputStreamAppender, providing the full range of encoding options.

NOTE: Although the ReporterAppender class extends OutputStreamAppender, selection of a target output stream is not supported. Output from this appender is always directed to a ReporterOutputStream, which emits its contents to the TestNG Reporter.

Full configuration example

Add logback-testng and logback-classic as library dependencies to your project.

[maven pom.xml]
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.sbabcoc</groupId>
    <artifactId>logback-testng</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
    <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId>
    <artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.2</version>
    <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

This is an example logback.xml that uses a common PatternLayout to encode a log message as a string.

[src/main/resources/logback.xml]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <!-- This is the ReporterAppender -->
    <appender name="TestNG" class="com.github.sbabcoc.logback.testng.ReporterAppender">
        <encoder>
            <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <root level="info">
        <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
        <appender-ref ref="TestNG" />
    </root>
</configuration>
