Description
Currently, the way to get the stdout/stderr of the tests from a custom TestExecutionListener
is to override the reportingEntryPublished()
method and watch for stdout
or stderr
keys in the entries.
The big downside of the current state of things is that JUnit captures the whole output of the test before sending these 2 report entries. This is very limited and doesn't allow proper streaming of the test output when this is needed.
It would be great if the listener could receive events line by line. One way to do this would be to call reportEntryPubished
for each line of output. This is backwards-incompatible, and also might not align with report-oriented semantics of this method. Instead, there could be new methods for these events, like stdoutLinePrinted
and stderrLinePrinted
(names TBD). This would allow using TestExecutionListener
to stream outputs of the tests for consumers like build tools or IDEs.
