Hi Will,
My fault. I thought it would work the way I explained it ... but it doesn't
... However, the correct way to do it is even simpler ... :-)
Your test case instance inherits from ServletTestCase, JspTestCase or
FilterTestCase. In turn, they all inherit from AbstractTestCase which
defines a logger object, which is correctly initialized when you use it in
your test methods.
So here is the correct way to do it :
public class MyTestCase extends ServletTestCase
{
public void beginXXX(WebRequest theRequest)
{
logger.debug("beginXXX");
}
public void testXXX()
{
logger.debug("testXXX");
}
public void endXXX(WebResponse theResponse)
{
logger.debug("endXXX");
}
}
You still need to configure correctly the Log4j Category in the properties
files.
Thanks
-Vincent

Subject: Re: Logging using log4j
> Thanks for you reply. I tried your code below but I got an error saying
that the LogService I got from getInstance() needs to be initialized.
However, the init() call for LogService takes in an argument of a file.
What should I do in this case?
