Instead of pytest's built-in log capture, it lets you configure which loggers to monitor, at what level, and routes their output to both stdout (during test runs) and to separate files organized by test and logger name in a session directory. You set it up via pytest hooks in conftest.py, naming the loggers you care about and their default output levels, then control which loggers appear during a test run using command-line options like `--log foo,bar.debug`.\n\nThe plugin is useful when your code or test fixtures use Python's standard logging module and you want fine-grained control over which log streams appear in test output and where they're stored. It organizes logs by test and logger name on disk, making it easy to review detailed logs for specific tests without cluttering the main test output.","worth_installing":"Yes. It has low install friction (pytest-only dependency), active maintenance, permissive MIT license, no known vulnerabilities, and solves a real problem for teams using Python logging in tests. Install it if you need structured per-logger log capture and file organization during pytest runs."},"id":"pytest-logger","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-logger","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-logger.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytest-logger/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-03-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pytest-logger","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Plugin configuring handlers for loggers from Python logging module."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":257462,"position":8446,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.1"}
