--------------------------------

             Summary: Failing smokes should copy Std Error / Std Out to a file or else print them to the existing test logs.
                 Key: BIGTOP-1113
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1113
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tests
            Reporter: jay vyas


It is a useful feature that bigtop test framework ITest already captures std out / std err rather than streaming it to screen......... but if the direct std output/error from the client invoking a job was printed to the test outputs in failsafe.  

In general these outputs arent necessary and clutter test reports , but in cases of low level or system failures, the specific assertion failures arent particularly helpful.

Before adding a patch, i wonder : another option Could we add a top level maven parameter to tell iTest to redirect std err /std out?
