Capturing logs does not work with multiprocessing about pytest HOT 2 CLOSED

Pytest is unaware of multiprocessing

You need to add a passover handler yourself

from pytest.

I am curious whether it is feasible to support multiprocessing in caplog without resorting to hacks, and I am open to preparing a PR with your guidance.

Not sure if it would be possible to implement this in a general manner, as it would require some form of hooking into the subprocess spawning behavior to capture and transfer the captured logging output....

If multiprocessing had some form of way to enable this automatically, I could see we adding support for it to pytest, but a more complicated implementation is probably out of scope for the pytest core. Perhaps a plugin could be a good fit.

I'm closing this for now, but feel free to follow up with more questions.
