Save console output to file

[rbabayoff]

Hey there,

First off, your product is amazing and something I dreamt of for more than 10 years. Having said that, the stated in the subject is a must.

I have a test that fails only in ci and passes when I run the same config locally, and the only way to get insight into what's going on is to take a look at my app's logs and exceptions in the console.

I know this has been raised in the past here #300 and here #448 already 3 years ago, but no resolution as of yet.

I'm going to implement it myself by intercepting the console and send the logs to a cypress node task which saves the logs to a file, but this, for me, has to become part of the core.

Best,
Ronen

Adding my voice to this. We're testing a React/Redux app with a console logger middleware and it would be really awesome to be able to have that console output whenever a test fails.

Looking to use cypress for REST API testing. This is a show-stopper for us

Any update on this? Ability to dump console.log contents to file could be much more helpful than dumping screenshot / video recordings, at least on CI.

We just found a use for this, too.

This would really be a great feature to have.
