.. deprecated:: 4.0
The ``--result-log`` option produces a stream of test reports which can be
analysed at runtime. It uses a custom format which requires users to implement their own
parser, but the team believes using a line-based format that can be parsed using standard
tools would provide a suitable and better alternative.
analysed at runtime, but it uses a custom format which requires users to implement their own
parser.
The current plan is to provide an alternative in the pytest 5.0 series and remove the ``--result-log``
option in pytest 6.0 after the new implementation proves satisfactory to all users and is deemed
stable.
The :ref:`--report-log <report_log>` option provides a more standard and extensible alternative, producing
one JSON object per-line, and should cover the same use cases. Please try it out and provide feedback.
The actual alternative is still being discussed in issue `#4488 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4488>`__.

.. _report_log:
Report files
============
.. versionadded:: 5.3
The ``--report-log=FILE`` option writes *report logs* into a file as the test session executes.
Each line of the report log contains a self contained JSON object corresponding to a testing event,
such as a collection or a test result report. The file is guaranteed to be flushed after writing
each line, so systems can read and process events in real-time.
Each JSON object contains a special key ``$report_type``, which contains a unique identifier for
that kind of report object. For future compatibility, consumers of the file should ignore reports
they don't recognize, as well as ignore unknown properties/keys in JSON objects that they do know,
as future pytest versions might enrich the objects with more properties/keys.
.. note::
This option is meant to the replace ``--resultlog``, which is deprecated and meant to be removed
in a future release. If you use ``--resultlog``, please try out ``--report-log`` and
provide feedback.
Example
-------
Consider this file:
.. code-block:: python
# content of test_report_example.py
def test_ok():
assert 5 + 5 == 10
def test_fail():
assert 4 + 4 == 1
.. code-block:: pytest
$ pytest test_report_example.py -q --report-log=log.json
.F [100%]

E assert (4 + 4) == 1
