Ralph Goers updated LOG4J2-2720:
--------------------------------
Description:
I have written unit tests on Logs by creating a custom appender
After moving to Log4j2.11, I am seeing that the getMessages is returning empty
after I am logging something. I attached a debugger and can see that the
append() method is being invoked and the message list is getting populated,
however at the time of verififcation it is magically vanishing off. Reverting
back to 2.8 fixes this.
