Sometimes you want to get a report of all the test sets with their included test cases along with
their test steps with the tests organized by the order in which they are
displayed in SpiraTest. The custom reporting system in Spira allows you
to create a custom report of all the test cases (by test set) and test steps
sorted by test case order. This articles describes the process for

It works in a format-agnostic manner, so that the same templates and layouts can be used regardless of whether the final report will be in PDF, HTML, Excel or MS-Word format. However sometimes there is a need to modify the specific template used to generate a specific format (e.g. MS-Word). This article describes the process.
