I’m creating a set of Best Practice Analyzers (BPA) and I’m wondering if there is built-in support for logging, similar to engine.Log() in automation scripts? If there’s no support yet, are there any plans for adding this, or what is the recommended way of logging to disk in a BPA?

Hi Jens, At this time there is no built-in logging functionality for BPA tests.
I’m sure such a feature could get added in the future, but as far as I know there are no current plans to tackle this in the near future.
I’m a bit curious as to what the type of logging is you would like to generate?

I would mainly log general-purpose information, in case there are bugs/edge cases in the analyzers that only occur on systems in the wild.
