Log regex pattern(s) to be searched in last log entries.
|
- |
last_number_messages |
Annotated[int, Field(ge=1, le=9999)] | None
|
Last number of messages to check in the logging buffers. Takes precedence over `last_number_time_units`.
|
None
|
last_number_time_units |
Annotated[int, Field(ge=1, le=9999)] | None
|
Number of time units to look in the logging buffers.
The actual duration is determined based on the selected `time_unit` (e.g. 5 "days", 10 "minutes").
|
None
|
time_unit |
Literal['days', 'hours', 'minutes', 'seconds']
|
Unit of time to be used with `last_number_time_units`.
|
'days'
|
severity_level |
LogSeverityLevel
|
Log severity level.
|
'informational'
|
fail_on_match |
bool
|
If `True`, the test fails if regex patterns are found. Otherwise, the test fails if patterns are not found instead.
|
False
|
validate_inputs ¶
validate_inputs() -> Self
Validate the inputs provided to the LoggingQuery class.
Either last_number_messages
or last_number_time_units
must be provided, not both.
