[erlang-questions] CT: outputting lager debug messages

[Jacob]

I am using this code in my test suite modules to catch lager debug output:

init_per_suite(Cfg) ->
    lager_common_test_backend:bounce(debug),
    Cfg.

No other changes are required. The lager logging messages are then
included in the regular test suite output files.

Best regards

Jacob
