| Logging is used for 3 primary goals | |
| * debugging | |
| * tracing - understanding execution flow of the program in real life | |
| * checking inputs | |
| There are better tools available for all these three tasks for most usecases | |
| Lets see each case. | |
| Debugging - When a bug is reported the first order of business is to write a test case that fails and this failure clearly indicates that the bug is present - the code is then modified till this test passes (and no other ones fail) - no need for logging |
