   Summary: Review of pytest-catchlog Issues/PRs

   After reviewing the open issues and PRs from the pytest-catchlog repository, here's the status of each item:

   Issues

   pytest-catchlog #	Issue	Status
   #60	caplog.set_level side effects persist to next test	✅ Fixed in pytest 6.0.1 (#7569, #7672). Log levels are now properly restored via _finalize().
   #59	Noisy logs from other plugins (e.g., flake8)	✅ Addressed via --log-disable=logger_name option, which allows disabling specific loggers.
   #44	Loggers with propagate=False not captured by caplog	❌ Still open - tracked as #3697 (22+ upvotes).
   #43	I/O operation on closed file with many threads	🔶 Related to #5743 (still open). handleError now raises on errors rather than silently failing.
   #41	I/O operation on closed file after monkeypatching handlers	🔶 Related to #5743.

   Pull Requests

   pytest-catchlog #	PR	Status
   #65	Add --print-logs option to override --no-print-logs	🔄 Evolved - pytest uses log_cli=true config option and --log-cli-level instead.

   Conclusion

   The remaining open items are already tracked in dedicated pytest issues:

   • Handling of loggers with propagate=False #3697 - propagate=False logger handling
   • Improve error message when tests use closed stdout/stderr (capture) #5743 - I/O errors with logging handler changes across tests

   Closing this meta-issue as the review is complete.
