# Introduction
Hey, hello there 👋 Welcome. I hope you will like this library ❤️
ConsoleCaptor is a library which will enable you to easily capture the output of the console for unit testing purposes.
Do you want to capture logs? Please have a look at [LogCaptor](https://github.com/Hakky54/log-captor).
### Advantages
- No mocking required
- No custom JUnit extension required
- Plug & play
- Zero transitive dependencies
### Tested Java versions
- Java 8
- Java 11+
See the unit test [ConsoleCaptorShould](src/test/java/nl/altindag/console/ConsoleCaptorShould.java) for all the scenario's.
# Usage
##### Capture console output
```java
public class FooService {
public void sayHello() {
System.out.println("Keyboard not responding. Press any key to continue...");
System.err.println("Congratulations, you are pregnant!");
}
}
```
###### Unit test:
```java
import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;
import nl.altindag.console.ConsoleCaptor;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
public class FooServiceShould {
@Test
public void captureStandardAndErrorOutput() {
ConsoleCaptor consoleCaptor = new ConsoleCaptor();
FooService fooService = new FooService();
fooService.sayHello();
assertThat(consoleCaptor.getStandardOutput()).contains("Keyboard not responding. Press any key to continue...");
assertThat(consoleCaptor.getErrorOutput()).contains("Congratulations, you are pregnant!");
consoleCaptor.close();
}
}
```
##### Initialize ConsoleCaptor once and reuse it during multiple tests with clearOutput() method within the afterEach method:
```java
import nl.altindag.console.ConsoleCaptor;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.AfterAll;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.AfterEach;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeAll;
public class FooServiceShould {
private static ConsoleCaptor consoleCaptor;
@BeforeAll
public static void setupConsoleCaptor() {
consoleCaptor = new ConsoleCaptor();
}
@AfterEach
public void clearOutput() {
consoleCaptor.clearOutput();
}
@AfterAll
public static void tearDown() {
consoleCaptor.close();
}
@Test
public void captureStandardOutput() {
FooService service = new FooService();
service.sayHello();
assertThat(consoleCaptor.getStandardOutput()).contains("Keyboard not responding. Press any key to continue...");
}
@Test
public void captureErrorOutput() {
FooService service = new FooService();
service.sayHello();
assertThat(consoleCaptor.getErrorOutput()).contains("Congratulations, you are pregnant!");
}
}
```
