I'm having similar trouble at the moment.
That console edit area doesn't read at all in the Azure portal.
Earlier, I was reading one function output. Using OCR on the screen was partially successful.

Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Output of continuous integration (CI) systems
Hi.
Anyone got any tips for accessing the console output from a CI system job run? I'm talking about Azure Devops and Github Actions which both have the same issues.
I have fairly verbose jobs that I need to get info from fairly quickly. Back in the golden days I could open the console output from the job in Edge or whatever and do a find on page using JFW's find feature, and the piece of text I wanted would come up and I could arrow around to read the log.
These days both of these systems are doing something different. I typically can't just do a search anymore on the log window. In Azure Devops I can view a raw log, but it has timestamps which I have to skip through in order to get to what I want. In Github actions I have to download the log locally and go through it there. Arrowing through the log in the log viewer doesn't help either, I can sometimes turn off virtual PC cursor and get text out that way. Even worse is when I want to copy text from the log to the clipboard, its virtually impossible for me to select what I want and do ctrl+c to get it in the clipboard and elsewhere.
Anyone got any tips for navigating these systems?
Thanks.
Andrew.
