[logback-user] Is there a Junit appender?

[Chris Helck]

Is there a way to do the equivilent of LoggingContext.reset() from a config file? The module I'm working in has hundreds of tests, I'd hate to have to add reset() to each file. 

Thanks,
Chris

You should also look in logback-classic not just logback-core.

I suspect this is because the Logback classic jar is on the classpath and is getting picked up. Long story short, I don't want log messages echo'd to stdout when running tests. Any ideas?

That's the default logback configuration kicking in. You can either create a LoggingContext per unit test, which is what logback's own unit tests do, or reset the default logger context, the one returned by LoggerFactory. Here is the code to reset the default logger context.

LoggerContext lc = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory();
lc.reset();
