Wildcard support for the log verification

[yahman72]

Any thoughts about supporting wildcards in the log verification? i.e. in LOG x.y:z LEVEL Actual message

My use cases for this would be:

• Running tests with log level (i.e. -L argument) will cause the log index check (:z ) to fail --> e.g. use :*
• Sometimes I want to verify that a message there, but I don't care about the log level --> e.g. use ANY as log level

IMHO the above should not cause too much hassle as it would be backwards compatible

Sounds ok to me. Supporting wild cards with the actual message would sounds useful as well. Not sure is it already supported.

yeah, that one is already there i.e. that REGEXP: stuff

[pekkaklarck]

Yeah, that's what I remembered. As i wrote earlier, adding more wildcard support is fine. Will need someone to provide a PR with tests and docs, though. Are you @yahman72 interested? Anything in the design we should discuss?

[yahman72]

I can have a look, would need this for my project anyway ...

wrt. design: IMHO not, at least not yet (didn't look at the code), as long as the above proposal is okay i.e.

• use * for the log index wildcard :*
• use ANY as the log level wildcard
