[ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-851?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Richard Achmatowicz commented on JGRP-851: ------------------------------------------ I've had a look at this and built an implementation which works, or seems to work. Log4j uses a ConsoleAppender to write logging statements to the console. Looking at the implementation of the ConsoleAppender, there are two relevant points: (i) the console appender writes to System.out and System.err using the methods flush(), write(byte[] b), write(byte[] b, int off, int len) and write(int b) (ii) the ConsoleAppender has an instance variable follow, which if true will allow the ConsoleAppender to write to System.out and System.err even if they are redirected after the initialization of the ConsoleAppender. JUnitXMLReporter plays a trick with System.out and System.err, overriding the default implementation with an implementation of a PrintStream which takes print() and println() commands sent to System.out and System.err and writing them to a test class specific buffer which is then used to generate test reports. The solution to integrating the logging output with the test case output is therefore to: (i) add implementations of the methods flush(), write(byte[] b), write(byte[] b, int off, int len) and write(int b) to JUnitXMLReporter.MyOutput which is the replacement PrintStream (ii) in the log4j.properties file, include the following extra option log4j.appender.console=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.console.Follow=true This cases output to flow from the logging statements in the test case, through the console appender, through the substituted System.out and System.err and into the test case XML files. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
