Hi @mihaiparvu does it only search for keywords ? Since it would be great to search the whole contents of the log.html. I will make an example: let's say we have a keyword that returns a dictionary data and we make a comparison with an expected dictionary. If they do not match the keyword would be repeated for an amout of time (eg. 2 minutes) untill it fails if they do not match. Searching through all the repeated keywords and looking at the dictionary that i am looking for takes a lot of time, while with a search function it would save a lot of time. |

I created a prototype search in log.html for #3799.
The interface was inspired from the old search function in libdoc and it looks like this:
In the search dialog, all the results are links to the keywords in the log file and inside the log the results are highlighted in orange.
A limitation I've encountered is that not all keywords are available from the start in DOM and are not accessible to search through them. A proposal I have is to add a checkbox to
Expand all keywords and search, but maybe there is a better way to do it that I cannot see at the moment.@pekkaklarck any comments and suggestions from you are welcomed :)
