How can i validate the response i receive from browser logs?

Question

I'm trying to get logs from the browser while running my test with selenium webdriver.

driver.manage().logs().get("browser").forEach(l -> System.out.println(l));

I want to print a message to the console if i get "severe" error.

Here is a workaround to your problem...

LogEntries logEntries = driver.manage().logs().get(LogType.BROWSER);
for (LogEntry entry : logEntries) {
      System.out.println(new Date(entry.getTimestamp()) + " " + entry.getLevel() + " " + entry.getMessage());
}

If this doesn't work, put a lag Thread.sleep(1000) before getting logs like below

Thread.sleep(1000);
LogEntries logEntries = driver.manage().logs().get(LogType.BROWSER);
for (LogEntry entry : logEntries) {
    System.out.println(new Date(entry.getTimestamp()) + " " + entry.getLevel() + " " + entry.getMessage());
}
