I want to run some automation tests with the firefox browser. With this, I want to get the logs which is normally shown on the console to be redirected to a separate file. How can I do this in firefox? Google chrome has a similar functionality when you open chrome with "--enable-logging --v=1" parameters.

You can redirect the output to a file with an angle bracket: 

firefox > log.txt
