 How to capture stdout/stderr output
 =========================================================
 
+Pytest intercepts stdout and stderr as configured by the ``--capture=``
+command-line argument or by using fixtures. The ``--capture=`` flag configures
+reporting, whereas the fixtures offer more granular control and allows
+inspection of output during testing. The reports can be customized with the
+`-r flag <../reference/reference.html#command-line-flags>`_.
