logging output during tests

[niosus]

oh, sorry, opened in a wrong repo. I should stop coding late. Thanks for moving it here!

[randy3k]

It should be possible by exposing the stream object to users.

[randy3k]

6708fc0 added a logger, you could use logger in your test*.py as follows

logger = logging.getLogger('UnitTesting')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

class TestUnitTesting(TestCase):
     def test_something(self):
          logger.debug("hello")

looks like ST2 does not like it...

edit, 779f357 should fix it

[niosus]

Thanks @randy3k that was fast! Are you planning to make it part of the next version in the Package Manager? Or should I just clone this repo?

[randy3k]

It is released. You should be able to upgrade it via Package Control.

[niosus]

I guess I will have to wait some time till it becomes available through Package Control. I believe there is some lag till it is ready for the public. I have used PackageResourceViewer to verify there is still no logger present on my local machine. By the way, is there an easy way to check version of your plugin?

[randy3k]

PC has updated UnitTesting, the latest version is 0.5.9.

You can use Package Control: List Packages to check package version.

[niosus]

Ah, you're totally right! Thanks for your patience :)

Logging something in tests works now. Do you think it is possible to also output something that is being logged from the package under test?

[randy3k]

You can use the same logger in your package.

[niosus]

Yes, I see this option, but my plugin has already nicely configured loggers with their specific names for each module, so in the ideal case I would still like to see them with their specific names. However, if you estimate that this is hard to do - it is not too crucial to me. Just a "nice to have" feature. Thanks anyway!

[randy3k]

You can configure your loggers such that all messages would be forward to the UnitTesting logger.

@niosus

The logger.getLogger("UnitTesting") is now deprecated. A new settings capture_console in unittesting.json will redirect the sublime console to the output stream. It is still new, use with care. :)

[niosus]

Thanks! This sounds pretty awesome!

[niosus]

I think the setting is wrong. It works if I use caputre_console instead of capture_console.

Also, it doesn't seem to capture the outputs of logging. At least in my case. It prints the lines printed with print(...)

[randy3k]

The setting name has been fixed. It seems that logging is still using the original stdout even the the current stdout has been directed to the output stream.

[randy3k]

I have an idea how to fix it. I am out now, will fix when I get back home.

[randy3k]

fix in e3a3235.

[niosus]

Perfect! Now it works exactly as I was dreaming 👍 Great job!
