Most executable Jupyter notebooks are tested on an Ubuntu virtual machine through a GitHub automated workflow. The log file for successful executions is named: action_log.txt.
Current status: 
The Github workflow is a starting point for what is known as Continuous Integration (CI) in DevOps/Platform Engineering circles.
