Log4J2 | Logging in Java framework | Selenium test automation
In this video we will discus about logging in automation framework. There are many number of logging libraries available, which can be use in our framework. But in our framework we are going to use Apache Log4j2.
Different Log events we can use in Log4j2are as below:
ERROR
WARN
INFO
DEBUG
VERBOSE
If we want to use Log4j in our framework, then below dependency has to be added in pom.xml file.
dependency
groupIdorg.apache.logging.log4j /groupId
artifactId log4j-core /artifactId
version 2.13.3 /version
/dependency
To initialize the logger in class you can write the below code.
Logger log = (Logger) LogManager.getLogger(stepdef.class);
Then you can use the log object to generate logs.
log.info("Navigated to url"+url);
Apart from this we have to add below log4j2.xml in our project root folder.
Based on the minimum log event type, provided in the configuration we will get the log events in the log file.
#?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?#
#Configuration status="WARN" strict="true"#
