How to override pytest logging behaviour

[mohit2152sharma]

I have created a custom logging class and I am trying to write tests for it. The class has it's own formatter, for example something like "timestamp:%(asctime)s - logger_name:%(name)s - levelname:%(levelname)s - message:%(message)s".

When i run the pytests, somehow the logs generated by this custom logger are captured in caplog with basicConfig format and on the stdout I can see the logs in the format set by custom logging class.

Following are the code snippets of how I am doing it:

# this _core.py
class CustomLogger:
    def __init__(
        self,
        name: str = "root",
        level: int = logging.INFO,
        config: Optional[dict] = None,
    ):
        self.name = name
        self.level = level

        self.config = config or CustomDefaultConf()._create_default_conf_dict()
        logging.config.dictConfig(self.config)
        logging.setLoggerClass(CustomLoggerClass)
        self.logger = logging.getLogger(name)

# in the __init__.py I expose logger
logger = CustomLogger().logger

# in the tests file
from custom_logger import logger 

def test_dummy_func(): 
    logger.info("hello world")

# in the terminal I get the following output
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Captured stdout call ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
timestamp:2024-02-26 19:56:38 - logger_name:custom_logger - levelname:INFO - time_taken:1 - message:Function dummy_func took 0:00:00.000163
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Captured log call ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFO     custom_logger.py:42 Function dummy_func took 0:00:00.000163

How can I redirect the output of my custom logger to "Captured log call"?
