I want to log only the ERROR during testing in maven. For this purpose I created a file src/test/resources/log4j.properties, which is going to override the configuration I already have in src/main/resources/log4j.properties. But this is not working. My log4j.properties looks like below:-
log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, out, stdout
# CONSOLE appender
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ} | %-5.5p | %-16.16t | %-32.32c{1} | %X{bundle.id} - %X{bundle.name} - %X{bundle.version} | %X | %m%n
#log4j.logger.org.apache.http=INFO
# File appender
log4j.appender.out=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.out.File=/tmp/wf_test.log
log4j.appender.out.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.appender.out.Append=true
log4j.appender.out.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.out.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ} | %-5.5p | %-16.16t | %-32.32c{1} | %X{bundle.id} - %X{bundle.name} - %X{bundle.version} | %X | %m%n
My pom.xml looks like below:-

But setting log level to ERROR or some other value in log4j.properties is not making any effect. The actual level is always INFO. I have gone through this question and tried modifying my sure-fire plugin configuration but still no luck.

Maven version is as below:-
jabongs-MacBook-Pro-4:basecomponent debraj$ mvn -v
Apache Maven 3.3.9 (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5; 2015-11-10T22:11:47+05:30)
Maven home: /Users/debraj/Downloads/apache-maven-3.3.9
Java version: 1.8.0_77, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_77.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.11.4", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"
The issue is there only in test config and during the test execution. If the log level is changed in src/main/resources/log4j.properties then during the main application run the log level messages are fine.
Can someone let me know what is going wrong?
The issue was because one of the dependency (s3ninja) we were using during testing. It seems it was also using log4j and has its default log level set to INFO. To solve this I also set s3ninja's log level to the rootLogger level that is set in src/test/resources/log4j.properties. Something like below:-
Setup setup = new Setup(Mode.TEST, ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader());
setup.withDefaultLogLevel(Logger.getRootLogger().getLevel());
Sirius.start(setup);
