if you are using unix, you could do: "py.test ... | tee -a log"  
on windows there might be something similar.  

Otherwise maybe indeed the resultlog plugin could grow some feature.
In fact i'd like to have result logging happen to a directory and 
then be able to query it without running tests.  

best,
