I have a large test suite running on travis-ci, which has a textual output. I would like to configure gradle in a way that only for failed tests, the standard output and standard error streams are displayed. For all other tests which have been executed correctly, this should not happen so that the console is not polluted with that noise.
I am aware how to enable or disable the standard output/error logging, but I am unsure how to make this dependend on the test result.
This can be archived with following gradle config
project.test {
def outputCache = new LinkedList<String>()
beforeTest { TestDescriptor td -> outputCache.clear() } // clear everything right before the test starts
onOutput { TestDescriptor td, TestOutputEvent toe -> // when output is coming put it in the cache
outputCache.add(toe.getMessage())
while (outputCache.size() > 1000) outputCache.remove() // if we have more than 1000 lines -> drop first
}
/** after test -> decide what to print */
afterTest { TestDescriptor td, TestResult tr ->
if (tr.resultType == TestResult.ResultType.FAILURE && outputCache.size() > 0) {
println()
println(" Output of ${td.className}.${td.name}:")
outputCache.each { print(" > $it") }
}
}
}

tasks.withType(Test) {
testLogging {
events TestLogEvent.FAILED,
TestLogEvent.SKIPPED,
TestLogEvent.STANDARD_ERROR,
TestLogEvent.STANDARD_OUT
exceptionFormat TestExceptionFormat.FULL
showCauses true
showExceptions true
