Here are some possible solutions to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check Cron Configuration: Ensure that your cron job is properly configured in the automation.xml file. Double-check the correctness of the element structure and attributes, such as name, model_id, state, code, user_id, interval_number, and interval_type.log files are located in the Odoo installation directory. Look for any relevant entries that may provide insights into the issue.

2. Enable Developer Mode: Enable the developer mode in Odoo to see detailed error messages. You can enable it by adding ?debug at the end of the URL or by activating the developer mode through the user interface (by going to "Settings" -> "Activate the Developer Mode").

3. Restart Odoo Service: Restart the Odoo service to ensure that any changes made to the cron job or module are properly applied. Sometimes, changes may not take effect until the service is restarted.

4. Verify Access Rights: Ensure that the user specified in the user_id attribute of the cron job has the necessary access rights to execute the job. The user should have appropriate permissions on the model and its associated methods.

5. Check Server Timezone: Make sure the server's timezone is correctly set. Cron jobs in Odoo are executed based on the server's timezone configuration. Verify that the timezone is set correctly in the Odoo configuration file (odoo.conf).

Sorry for the late response,
The print() function won't display anything in odoo log file.
You should use a logging function to display infos in odoo log.

See example below:

import logging

_logger=logging.getLogger(__name__) 

_logger.info("MY FIRST INFO LOG")

I hope I've helped you...

Hello,

For the XML code:

For the python code:

@api.model
def test_cron(self):
print("test cron")

Be sure that the xmlfile is imported in the _manifest.py and the python file is imported in the __init_.py file.

For the model_id in the xml file:

You have to set model.model_name where the model is the name of your application and model_name is the name of your model where the function test_cron is declared.

Best regards,
