var (
	// Default is the default logger that is used for the Logf function, if no one is provided. It uses the
	// TerratestLogger to log messages. This can be overwritten to change the logging globally.
	Default = New(terratestLogger{})
	// Discard discards all logging.
	Discard = New(discardLogger{})
	// Terratest logs the given format and arguments, formatted using fmt.Sprintf, to stdout, along with a timestamp and
	// information about what test and file is doing the logging. Before Go 1.14, this is an alternative to t.Logf as it
	// logs to stdout immediately, rather than buffering all log output and only displaying it at the very end of the test.
	// This is useful because:
	//
	// 1. It allows you to iterate faster locally, as you get feedback on whether your code changes are working as expected
	//    right away, rather than at the very end of the test run.
	//
	// 2. If you have a bug in your code that causes a test to never complete or if the test code crashes, t.Logf would
	//    show you no log output whatsoever, making debugging very hard, where as this method will show you all the log
	//    output available.
	//
	// 3. If you have a test that takes a long time to complete, some CI systems will kill the test suite prematurely
	//    because there is no log output with t.Logf (e.g., CircleCI kills tests after 10 minutes of no log output). With
	//    this log method, you get log output continuously.
	//
	Terratest = New(terratestLogger{})
	// TestingT can be used to use Go's testing.T to log. If this is used, but no testing.T is provided, it will fallback
	// to Default.
	TestingT = New(testingT{})

Functions

func CallerPrefix

func CallerPrefix(callDepth int) string

CallerPrefix returns the file and line number information about the methods that called this method, based on the current goroutine's stack. The argument callDepth is the number of stack frames to ascend, with 0 identifying the method that called CallerPrefix, 1 identifying the method that called that method, and so on.

This code is adapted from testing.go, where it is in a private method called decorate.

func DoLog

func DoLog(t testing.TestingT, callDepth int, writer io.Writer, args ...interface{})

DoLog logs the given arguments to the given writer, along with a timestamp and information about what test and file is doing the logging.

func Log

func Log(t testing.TestingT, args ...interface{})

Log logs the given arguments to stdout, along with a timestamp and information about what test and file is doing the logging. This is an alternative to t.Logf that logs to stdout immediately, rather than buffering all log output and only displaying it at the very end of the test. See the Logf method for more info.

func Logf deprecated

func Logf(t testing.TestingT, format string, args ...interface{})

Deprecated: use Logger instead, as it provides more flexibility on logging. Logf logs the given format and arguments, formatted using fmt.Sprintf, to stdout, along with a timestamp and information about what test and file is doing the logging. Before Go 1.14, this is an alternative to t.Logf as it logs to stdout immediately, rather than buffering all log output and only displaying it at the very end of the test. This is useful because:

  1. It allows you to iterate faster locally, as you get feedback on whether your code changes are working as expected right away, rather than at the very end of the test run.
  1. If you have a bug in your code that causes a test to never complete or if the test code crashes, t.Logf would show you no log output whatsoever, making debugging very hard, where as this method will show you all the log output available.
  1. If you have a test that takes a long time to complete, some CI systems will kill the test suite prematurely because there is no log output with t.Logf (e.g., CircleCI kills tests after 10 minutes of no log output). With this log method, you get log output continuously.

Although t.Logf now supports streaming output since Go 1.14, this is kept for compatibility purposes.
