Description

When specifying, according to this doc, a JUnit listener, the test output is sent to STDOUT, even though redirectTestOutputToFile is set to true.

This happens with log4j2 configuration for SYSTEM_OUT, regular System.out.println works fine.

With no properties element, redirectTestOutputToFile is honored.
