======================

pytest-session2file is a py.test plugin that save failure or test session information to a file pass that can be
invoked as at command line when launching py.test run. It put in a file exactly what pytest return to stdout.

**Installation**

    pip install pytest-session2file


**Usage**


Once the plugin is installed edit your `conftest.py` and insert in the top of the file :

    pytest_plugins = 'pytest_session2file'

Then you can launch your test with the new option `--session2file=` like this :

    py.test --session2file=FILENAME

If you don't want to edit your `conftest.py` you can invoque py.test like this :

    py.test -p pytest_session2file --session2file=FILENAME

At the end of the test execution you should obtain a text file with the content of stdout of py.test under the filename
provided that look like this :

============== test session starts ====================

...

============== 2 passed in 34.70 seconds ==============
