Puppet Development Kit test unit with multiple output targets

We have introduced the PDK lately into our developments chain and are now trying to make everybody happy with the test outputs it generates.

We need an output as JUnit test report for our jenkins jobs. That we have solved.

And we need the output still on the console because some of the developers find it very annoying having to open the JUnit report file before they can see failed tests.

pdk test unit --format=junit:report.xml

Is how we configured the output for JUnit.

Unfortunately as soon as you configure the JUnit report no output gets printed on the console/stdout anymore. Even if you add another format like --format=text without target file.

Is there a way to achieve both without running the PDK twice?

It doesn't appear to be in the docs, but this should work.

pdk test unit --format=junit:report.xml --format=text:stdout

See https://github.com/puppetlabs/pdk/blob/7b2950bc5fb2e88ead7321c82414459540949eb1/lib/pdk/cli/util/option_normalizer.rb#L10-L24

I've filed a ticket to ensure that gets promoted to the docs at https://puppet.com/docs/pdk/1.x/pdk_reference.html#pdk-test-unit-command

From PDK documentation

--format=[:]

Specifies the format of the output. Optionally, you can specify a target file for the given output format, such as --format=junit:report.xml . Multiple --format options can be specified as long as they all have distinct output targets

So I believe ,you can try as below 

pdk test unit --tests=testcase_name --format=junit:report.xml --format=text:log.txt

Hope it helps.
