How can I implement advanced logging in Appium?

You can implement advanced logging in Appium by using the built-in logging capabilities of Appium along with external libraries like Log4j or SLF4J.

What specific features should I look for in a logging library?

Look for features like log levels (info, debug, error), log formatting, and the ability to write logs to different outputs (console, file, etc.).

Can you provide a code example for setting up Log4j with Appium?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.BasicConfigurator;

public class AppiumTest {
    private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(AppiumTest.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BasicConfigurator.configure();
        logger.info("Starting Appium Test...");
        // Your Appium test code here
    }
}

How can I view the logs generated during the test execution?

You can view the logs by configuring Log4j to write to a file or the console. If you write to a file, check the specified log file after the test execution.
