In [How can I change the message format of WebUI.comment("msg")? + logging into FILE](http://forum.katalon.com/t/how-can-i-change-the-message-format-of-webui-comment-msg/17559) I described how to overwrite the Logback configuration dynamically. It worked. But I am afraid that technique is not very easy.

@devalex88 once expressed his opinion:

Yes, this would be the most intuitive method of customizing Logback setup.

@pdokuparthi,

KS v6.1.2 does not support looking for the Logback configuration file in the current Katalo project. Katalon Studio app needs to be changed.
