Selenium WebDriver with Java - Basics to Advanced and Frameworks - Test Case Logging with log4j Example - 1

The video tutorial provides a comprehensive guide on using Log4J for logging in Java-based testing frameworks like Selenium, Appium, and REST API. It explains the independence of Log4J from specific testing tools and details how to configure it to log to files or consoles. The tutorial covers pattern layouts, file management, and practical implementation steps, emphasizing the importance of configuration files in controlling logs.

Which Java frameworks can Log4J be used with?

• All Java-based frameworks

• Only Appium

• Only Selenium
