Need consolidated test output (logger message+screenshots+exceptions) [message #757212]

I'm using swtbot for testing a huge product. There will be many tests and hence the tester has to look at many test result files. The test analysis will be easy if swtbot can give a single consolidated result file for a test. Currently I have to look at multiple files to analyse a test. e.g. %CLASS_NAME%.txt, %CLASS_NAME%.html and screenshots captured in between the execution.

%CLASS_NAME%.html file does not contain logger(log4j) messages, so this file is of not much. However %CLASS_NAME%.txt file contains logger messages+exceptions.

1. Is there any proven way to convert this %CLASS_NAME%.txt file into html file?

2. Can I also provide links to captured screenshots into this html?

If I can achieve it, then the analyzer has to just look at this single file and he/she can get complete idea of test failure.

This is a known issue and I'm fixing this as I write this email :)

JUnit by default, allows capturing of output at a test suite level,
therefore it is not currently possible to capture test output at the
granularity of every testcase. See http://goo.gl/Vqli0 for what I mean
by this.

This particular feature is going to take a bit of time to build. I've
filed http://bugs.eclipse.org/364964 to track progress. Please add
