As a developer, attempts to should be logged as Trace, so that the Screenplay log can be easily filtered.

[Pressacco]

Description

Intent

Extract a test summary, by filtering the Screenplay log by severity.

This could be accomplished by logging the following as Trace:

• attempts to
• asks for

Alternatives

1. Could create a separate log file at run-time, but why bother?

Anything else?

Expected

The log file after Trace messages has been filtered out:

Commitments

• I agree to follow Boa Constrictor's Code of Conduct.

[Pressacco]

The proposed change, and subsequent unit tests, are related to:

• Questions written to the Actor log do not include the Actor prefix. #255

This is a really good idea.
