pytest_logbook

✓ import pytest_logbook

Used to configure logging level via pytest.mark.logbook or set log_level fixture.

Basic usage: use the log_level fixture to set the logging level for a test.

# test_my_module.py import logging def test_with_logging(log_level): log_level('DEBUG') logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) logger.debug('Debug message') assert True

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe plugin only captures output from the 'logbook' library, not the standard 'logging' module. If your code uses stdlib logging, this plugin won't capture messages.

fix

Use pytest-catchlog or the built-in caplog fixture for stdlib logging.

affects: all

gotchaThe log_level fixture must be requested as a test parameter; it doesn't work as a session-scoped fixture.

fix

Pass 'log_level' as a parameter to each test function that needs it.

affects: all

deprecatedThe '--log-level' command-line option was deprecated in version 1.2.0 in favor of using the log_level fixture.

fix

Use the log_level fixture instead of the CLI option.

affects: >=1.2.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Logbook library not installed

The plugin requires logbook to be installed.

fix

pip install logbook

No module named 'pytest_logbook'

The plugin is not installed or imported directly.

fix

pip install pytest-logbook and rely on pytest's plugin discovery; do not import manually.

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'info'

The log_level fixture not properly set or logger not correctly configured.

fix

Ensure the log_level fixture is used and the logger is from logbook, not stdlib.
