> {{GenericTestUtils$LogCapturer}} is useful for assertions against service logs. However it should be fixed in following aspects:
> # In the constructor, it uses the stdout appender's layout.
> {code}
> Layout layout = Logger.getRootLogger().getAppender("stdout").getLayout();
> {code}
> However, the stdout appender may be named "console" or alike which makes the constructor throw NPE. Actually the layout does not matter and we can use a default pattern layout that only captures application logs.
> # {{stopCapturing()}} method is not working. The major reason is that the {{appender}} internal variable is never assigned and thus removing it to stop capturing makes no sense.
> # It does not support {{org.slf4j.Logger}} which is preferred to log4j in many modules.
> # There is no unit test for it.
> This jira is to address these.
