The caplog fixture doesn't appear to work consistently

[medley56]

Taking the example test from the caplog documentation:

def test_foo(caplog):
    logging.getLogger().info("boo %s", "arg")
    print(caplog.record_tuples)
    assert caplog.record_tuples == [("root", logging.INFO, "boo arg")]

I've created a test module in the directory tests/test_test_foo.py.

When I run pytest tests, it passes (along with the rest of my tests) but when I run pytest tests/test_test_foo.py it appears that the caplog object doesn't capture anything:

If anything I would have expected the opposite behavior. i.e. failing in presence of my other tests but passing on its own. Is this a bug? I don't know. I'm probably doing something wrong but I've exhausted the documentation and stackoverflow so I felt I should bring the question here.

Closing this because it's well over our 14-day timeout for questions. Unfortunately I also don't know the answer 😢

Don't know if this helps anyone even though its closed already. But, I noticed that the line below was in the LOGGING configuration in my django project and removing it, fixed the error:
"root": {"handlers": ["console", "file"], "level": "DEBUG"},
