quietcaplog is a pytest fixture like caplog but which quiets output to any StreamHandler handlers on the root logger

quietcaplog.py

@pytest.fixture
def quietcaplog(caplog):
    """ Capture logging while suppressing output to stderr and stdout.

    quietcaplog IS a caplog fixture (so anything you can do with the caplog
    fixture you can do with it).  BUT it also removes any StreamHandler
    loggers from the root logger before the test and replaces them on the root
    logger after the test is over.  That means your tests are quiet, but you
    can also inspect the log messages being produced if needed.

    See caplog:
    https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/logging.html#caplog-fixture

    Example:
        # quietcaplog is a caplog object
        def test_this(self, quietcaplog):
            ...
            # see what was captured as log output:
            print(quietcaplog.record_tuples)
    """
