How to get failed step/scenario errors in variable at Environment file?

I want to print errors/logs/exception message that we get during run time to be printed in Environment.py. How do i get errors for failed tests accessible from environment.py file.

I need this error message in after step/scenario so that I can send it to TestRail and update Testcase Run results.

# — FILE: features/environment.py
def after_step(context, step):
    pass  # Details left out here.

def after_scenario(context, scenario):
    pass  # Details left out here.

• Anybody have testrail/or any test mgt tool integration with Behave?
• Or knows which inbuild function to use in after scenario that can return failed test error message?

FYI: I have used formatter and published HTML report having attachment/debug/runtime logs. I am not talking about this.

As already stated:

• The natural solution for this is to use a special Formatter
• A Formatter is a extension-point in behave. Therefore, you can provide your own
• Multiple formatters can be used at the same time, but only one should use stdout as output destination. The other should write to files or send messages somewhere else or …

ALTERNATIVE:

• Use JUnitXML or JSON output and apply a post-processor that transforms the test-run information to your other test tool (test case management system, test database, …)
