Adopt these logging best practices to ensure consistent, efficient, and meaningful logs:

1. Use Lombok’s @Slf4j annotation instead of manually declaring loggers:

// Avoid this:
private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(YourClass.class);

// Prefer this:
@Slf4j
public class YourClass {
    // Logger field 'log' is automatically created
}

1. Choose appropriate log levels based on the information’s importance:
   • log.trace(): Very detailed information, typically only valuable when debugging specific issues
   • log.debug(): Development-time information like “Stringing exec…”, “exec done.”
   • log.info(): Production-worthy information about application progress
   • log.warn(): Potential issues that don’t prevent operation
   • log.error(): Actual failures requiring attention
2. Log exceptions properly by passing the exception object as an argument:

// Avoid this:
try {
    // code
} catch (Exception e) {
    log.error("Operation failed.");
    e.printStackTrace(); // Redundant and can go to a different output stream
}

// Prefer this:
try {
    // code
} catch (Exception e) {
    log.error("Operation failed.", e); // Includes stack trace automatically
}

Following these practices makes logs more consistent, easier to search, and more valuable for debugging.
