/// @brief Manages the sets of loggers, their streams and log levels
///
/// The Boost.Test framework allows for having several formatters/loggers at the same time, each of which
/// having their own log level and output stream.
///
/// This class serves the purpose of
/// - exposing an interface to the test framework (as a boost::unit_test::test_observer)
/// - exposing an interface to the testing tools
/// - managing several loggers
///
/// @note Accesses to the functions exposed by this class are made through the singleton
///   @c boost::unit_test::unit_test_log.
///
/// Users/developers willing to implement their own formatter need to:
/// - implement a boost::unit_test::unit_test_log_formatter that will output the desired format
/// - register the formatter during a eg. global fixture using the method @c set_formatter (though the framework singleton).
///
/// @warning this observer has a higher priority than the @ref boost::unit_test::results_collector_t. This means
/// that the various @ref boost::unit_test::test_results associated to each test unit may not be available at the time
/// the @c test_unit_start, @c test_unit_finish ... are called.
///
/// @see
/// - boost::unit_test::test_observer
/// - boost::unit_test::unit_test_log_formatter
