Well, the screen output is definitely writing to STDOUT, at least according to Test::Trap.

I've taken an approach similar to Test::Log::Dispatch and added a code output that appends all messages to an array. I'm not getting the logs with Test::Trap anymore, but it's not a complete change to the rest of the testing approach by needing to read a temp logfile.

our @log;

$logger->add( Log::Dispatch::Code->new( min_level => 'debug', code => 
+sub {
    my %entry = @_;
    push @log, $entry{message};
}};¬
