Suppress logging from SoapUIProTestCaseRunner class when running tests command line

Hi all, when running tests using testRunner.bat, the output that is generated contains hundreds and hundreds of lines from a SoapUIProTestCaseRunner class:   10:00:56,116 INFO [SoapUIProTestCaseRu...

    Wow, I must be blind. I decided to give it one more Google search before moving onto something else, and found the class here. Don't know why I couldn't find this in the other 2 API docs I checked, but this appears to be the correct class.

     

    For anyone else that is wondering, I simply added a new logger to the soapui-log4j.xml file:

     

    <logger name="com.smartbear.ready.cmd.runner.pro.SoapUIProTestCaseRunner">
    <level value="ERROR"/>
    <appender-ref ref="ERRORFILE"/>
</logger>

    Obviously, you'll probably want to change the level and appender, but this was just a quick test to confirm that it did not log the output to the console.

Now to complete it you may want to indicate where this xml logger file is?

I searched both the install location and where user profile info for ready api is

I could not find soapui-log4j.xml

    Using ReadyAPI-2.0.2, my soapui-log4j.xml is in my %READYAPI_HOME%\bin directory

      How can you suppress the logging if you do not have access to the ready_api directory to add the logging configuration file. I am trying to run a composit project via maven. I created the log4j configuration files in the main/java resources and test/java resources directories, but it does not seem to pick it up.

        I'm honestly not sure that you can, as far as I can tell, ReadyAPI/SoapUI is always going to load soapui-log4j.xml from that directory. When you say you don't have access do you mean you don't know where it is, or you don't have permissions to touch anything in there?
