Interface CapturedOutput

All Superinterfaces:

CharSequence

All Known Implementing Classes:

OutputCaptureRule

public interface CapturedOutput
extends CharSequence

Provides access to System.out and System.err output that has been captured by the OutputCaptureExtension or OutputCaptureRule. Can be used to apply assertions either using AssertJ or standard JUnit assertions. For example:

 assertThat(output).contains("started"); // Checks all output
 assertThat(output.getErr()).contains("failed"); // Only checks System.err
 assertThat(output.getOut()).contains("ok"); // Only checks System.out
 

Since:

2.2.0
