Howto setup log4j to work properly with maven test ?

[David Delbecq <de...@oma.be>]

Hello,

i have a problem with the test plugin of maven (1.x). When i add log4j
configuration to project, it seems part of output that should go in
test-report/xxx.yyy.TestZzz.txt does in fact go out on the user console.
This is a problem because we get the test report stripped out of most of
it's output.

Example, if my log4j.xml is empty, i get this:
maven test -Dmaven.junit.usefile=true -Dmaven.junit.fork=true
-Dmaven.junit.forkmode=perTest
....
test:test:
    [junit] Running be.dissco.slide.SlideFopDriverTest
    [junit] Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Time elapsed: 4,799 sec
    [junit] 23 Apr 2007 16:46:15 - org.apache.slide.common.Domain -
WARNING - Access denied on /users by user *** Could not determine

    [junit] 23 Apr 2007 16:46:15 - org.apache.slide.common.Domain -

    [junit] [ERROR] TEST be.dissco.slide.SlideFopDriverTest FAILED
    [junit] Running be.rmi.intranet.db.V4_newsServiceTest


However, if my log4j.xml contains console appenders, i get this:

test:test:
    [junit] Running be.dissco.slide.SlideFopDriverTest
    [junit] 0    [main] DEBUG be.dissco.slide.SlideFopDriverTest  -
remove store dir
    [junit] 3    [main] DEBUG be.dissco.slide.SlideFopDriverTest  -
remove work dir
    [junit] 1223 [main] INFO  be.dissco.common.Dissco  - Start DISSCO
configuration initialization
    [junit] 1226 [main] DEBUG
be.dissco.common.configuration.ConfigurationLoader  - properties defined
: configuration.resource=dissco.xml,
    [junit] 1227 [main] INFO 
be.dissco.common.configuration.ConfigurationLoader  - load configuration
from :: systemId =
file:/home/delbd/dev/workspaces/intranet/RMI_intranet/target/test-classes/dissco.xml 
publicId = null


Obviously, those log entries should go in test-report not screen!

How to solve thise, is there a specific appender to use?

Thanks for help.










(part of log4j.xml below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">

<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"
debug="false" threshold="debug">
    <appender name="CONSOLE" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
        <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
            <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x
- %m%n"/>
        </layout>
    </appender>

    <!-- Shark loggers -->
    <appender name="PERSISTENCE" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
        <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
            <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x
- %m%n"/>
        </layout>
    </appender>
.....

If i type in console:
maven test -Dmaven.junit.usefile=true -Dmaven.junit.fork=true

i get this:
