How to enable logging when running with --collect-only

[jacek-lewandowski]

Hi,

I have some custom filtering depending on command line parameters. Some tests are skipped due to something and I want to log the information about why something was skipped. I use standard logging mechanism and run pytest with --collect-only -q. I've set log_print=True, log_level=INFO, log_format and log_file. Although the log file is created, it remains empty after execution. I know that my custom filtering is working fine and I'm sure I go through the code which is expected to log some messages.

Is it possible to enable logging in this case or I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Jacek
