Github user syed commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1331#issuecomment-217971133 @rafaelweingartner @jburwell Sorry for the late reply to this. I was on vacation and returned today. I've decided to use John's approach for the logging test as I feel it is more natural. Also the dicussion about `final static` being immutable and skipped by GC makes me feel that using an appender makes more sense. Furthermore, the `TestAppender` class provided by @jburwell is generic so that other tests can use it too. I will sqash the commits as it looking pretty good now unless you guys have any more comments.
