*** Warning: Are You at Risk for VOMIT? ***

Do you find yourself staring at a screen, your eyes glossing over as thousands of lines of text scroll by? Do you feel a wave of text-based nausea when someone asks you to "just check the logs"?

You may be suffering from VOMIT (Verbose Output Mental Irritation Toxicity).

This dangerous, work-induced ailment is triggered by exposure to an overwhelming quantity of log data, especially from parallel systems. The human brain, not designed to mentally process 12 simultaneous autoinst-log.txt files, enters a state of toxic shock. It rejects the "Verbose Output," making it impossible to find the one critical error line buried in a 50,000-line sea of "INFO: doing a thing."

Before you're forced to rm -rf /var/log in a fit of desperation, we present the digital antacid.

No panic: The openQA Log Visualizer (Also known as the "VOMIT-B-Gone 9000")

This is your web-based hazmat suit for handling toxic log environments. It bravely dives into the chaotic, multi-machine mess of your openQA test runs, finds all the related, verbose logs, and force-feeds them into a parser.
