Feature Request: --capture=hide to hide stdout/stderr from the terminal #1478
Description
This code mimics Python code with lots of stdout output:
def test_test():
print 'bla bla bla\n' * 10
assert False, 'something failed'Running pytest with --tb=short, I get the following output:
================= test session starts ==================
platform linux2 -- Python 2.7.9 -- py-1.4.31 -- pytest-2.6.4
plugins:

test_test.py F
======================= FAILURES =======================
______________________ test_test _______________________
test_test.py:5: in test_test
assert False, 'something failed'
E AssertionError: something failed
E assert False
----------------- Captured stdout call -----------------

It would be helpful if I could disable the sections "captured stdout/err call", e.g. with --capture=hide, especially as our code prints hundreds of lines usually. The additional information that --tb=short gives over --tb=line however is very useful for understanding where problems come from.
