Console.log and test reporter are mixed in output

[nqbao]

Sometime when our test scripts print out something, it will be print to stdout and mixed with reporter output. Example as below when i use xunit reporter and the test script print out something.

bootstrap application
init executor id 87d5137c-6db4-5976-7d97-220eca3c210d
<testsuite name="Mocha Tests" tests="9" failures="1" errors="1" skipped="0" timestamp="Tue, 19 May 2015 17:43:01 GMT" time="0.344">

It's hard to consume the reporter output for CI system. I think there are two possible solutions

• Add a flag (--no-console) to totally disable output printing
• Add a flag (--reporter-output) for separately saving the reporter output to a file

Please search for issues before filing them. the xunit reporter and console output mixing has been discussed at length in #114 and #161.

Add a flag (--reporter-output) for separately saving the reporter output to a file

We already have that - it's --file but read the issues with xunit first.

Got it, will do a proper search next time.
