What you want to test is the behavior of the `Builder` class. Since `HttpAppenderTest` is a heavy test that starts up an HTTP server, I would rather create a new `HttpAppenderBuilderTest` to test the builder. The builder needs to test that the required properties (`name`, `url` and `layout`) are present, before creating the appender. So, for example, you could test that: ```java HttpAppender.newBuilder() .setName("HTTP") .setUrl(new URL("https://localhost")) .build(); ``` returns `null` and logs an `ERROR` status logger message. To capture the status logger messages for a test case, we have an `@UsingStatusListener` annotation that injects a `ListStatusListener` into the test parameters. The `@UsingStatusListener` annotation is for example used here. https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/6e3f2e23437d2876f5db2b72bd82b8a34a61b285/log4j-core-test/src/test/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/core/pattern/HighlightConverterTest.java#L195-L211 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
