Hi!

Normally the way to do logging in robot is to use the "log"-keyword.
This does not write the output to console, but instead to the
generated log file.

As a side note, if you log using the warn-level, the warning will also
be written to console, but that might not be the best idea in this
case.

In the user guide the chapter "logging to console" [1] shows how to
create your own library that writes messages to console during the run
time. Just create the library with the content in the example listing
and then you can use the keyword "log to console".

I would still suggest that you use the keyword log and check the value
from the log file after the execution. That is a more maintainable
solution in the long term.

Cheers,
Jussi
