Logging information code example

Example 1: logging.logger

import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.WARNING)
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
  
logger.debug("some debugging...")
logger.error("some error...")

Example 2: logging request

Logging
In many cases it can be useful to print the
response and/or request details in order to 
help you create the correct expectations and 
send the correct requests. To do help you do thi
s you can use one of the predefined filters 
supplied with REST Assured or you can use one of the shortcuts.

Request Logging

given().log().all(). .. //
Log all request specification details
including parameters, headers and body
given().log().params(). .. // Log only the parameters of the request
given().log().body(). .. // Log only the request body
given().log().headers(). .. // Log only the request headers
given().log().cookies(). .. // Log only the request cookies
given().log().method(). .. // Log only the request method
given().log().path(). .. // Log only the request path

Example 3: what do you use for logging

I use Log4J for logging. 
I always log important steps in the test
execution. That helps me to debug
when there is a failure.
Log4J is not a replacement for HTML reports.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j- core</artifactId>
<version>2.11.0</version>
</dependency>

Example 4: how do you logging

Log4j

How do you use Log4J in your framework?
printing/logging the important events 
of the application/test run.
in my project I did logging using the log4j 
library. I added the library dependency
into pom.xml. For logging we create an 
object from Logger Interface and LogManager 
class using getLogger method and
passing the class name in it;  

private static Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(LogDemo.class.getName());
static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(log4jExample.class.getName());

We create it by passing the name of the 
current class. Then we can use this
object to do our logging.
log.info
log.debug
log.fatal
log.error

The Logger object is responsible for
capturing logging information and they
are stored in a namespace hierarchy.
