I am trying to write a test, using pytest, that would check that a specific function is writing out a warning to the log when needed. For example:
In module.py:
import logging
LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def run_function():
if something_bad_happens:
LOGGER.warning('Something bad happened!')
In test_module.py:
LOGGER = logging.getLogger(__name__)
from module import run_function
def test_func():
LOGGER.info('Testing now.')
run_function()
~ somehow get the stdout/log of run_function() ~
assert 'Something bad happened!' in output
I have seen that you can supposedly get the log or the stdout/stderr with pytest by passing capsys
or caplog
as an argument to the test, and then using either capsus.readouterr()
or caplog.records
to access the output.
However, when I try those methods, I only see "Testing now.", and not "Something bad happened!". It seems like the logging output that is happening within the call to run_function()
is not accessible from test_func()
?
The same thing happens if I try a more direct method, such as sys.stdout.getvalue()
. Which is confusing, because run_function()
is writing to the terminal, so I would think that would be accessible from stdout
...?
Basically, does anyone know how I can access that 'Something bad happened!' from within test_func()
?
