How can I covert a Jenkins log file artifact into a xml file to Publish Junit report?

Question

Hi I am trying to get a JUnit report but currently, it fails because of error in reading the xml file:

url=http://jenkins-ci:8080/job/test-job/lastSuccessfulBuild
wget -q -O- $url/api/xml?tree=artifacts[relativePath] | xpath '//relativePath/text()' 2>&1 | sed -re 's/-- NODE --//g' | tail -n+3\
| while read fileName;\
do \
   wget "${url}/artifact/${fileName}";\

done
mv unit-test.log unit-test.xml
touch *.xml

This is what I see when I try to visulaize this with analyzer plugin:

unit-test.xml : The processing instruction target matching "[xX][mM][lL]" is not allowed. Nested exception: The processing instruction target matching "[xX][mM][lL]" is not allowed.

Would love if somebody can propose a solution in groovy

I was able to solve my need for JUnit report history/visualization via the JUnit Plugin .

The configuration is very simple and straight-forward:

Specify the path to JUnit XML files in the Ant glob syntax, such as **/build/test-reports/*.xml. Be sure not to include any non-report files into this pattern. You can specify multiple patterns of files separated by commas. The base directory of the fileset is the workspace root.
