This report lists some details of the selected Test Plans in Xray, enabling them to be extracted in an Excel format. With this ability to extract the report you can use it for analysis of trends, and current testing status, or process this information to generate some metrics, for example, or even share it with someone else that still needs access to Jira.
Possible usage scenarios:
The following table shows an example of the columns/rows you should expect.

Key | Summary | Fix Versions | Begin Date | End Date | #Test | Passed | Passed (%) | Failed | Failed (%) | Executing | Executing (%) | To do | To do (%) | Aborted | Aborted (%) |

This report can be generated from different places/contexts, including:
General information about all the existing places available to export from and how to perform it is available on the Exporting (DC, Cloud) page. |
This report is applicable to:
The standard output format is .XLSX so you can open it in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and other tools compatible with this format. From those tools, you can generate a .CSV file.
The template has a set of assumptions that you have to make sure your Jira/Xray environment complies with:
If any of these assumptions is not met, you need to update the template or the environment accordingly.
from the Issue Navigator/Search, search by the issueType (i.e., "Test Plan") from your project (e.g., "EWB") and then use bulk export
project = "EWB" and issuetype = "Test Plan" order BY created DESC |
project = "EWB" and issuetype = "Test Plan" and fixVersion=1.2 order BY created DESC |
from the Issue Navigator/Search, search by Test Plans assigned to that Test Environment (e.g., "chrome") and then use bulk export
project = "EWB" and issuetype = "Test Plan" and testEnvironments = chrome order BY created DESC |
The report shows information about the Test Plans in a list form.
The report is composed of one sheet with the information on the "Test Plans".
By default, and to avoid overload/redundancy of information, only the "Test Plans" are rendered; all the other types will not be parsed.
This sheet will present a line per each Test Plan.

Adding or removing information to/from the report
As this report is column-based, if some columns are not relevant to you, you should be able to delete them. Make sure that no temporary variables are created in the cells of those columns that are used in other subsequent columns.
To add additional information, we're usually thinking of adding:
Let's say we have a "Description" field on the Test Plan issue that we want to show on the report.
We can copy the column "Summary" and adapt it.
Performance can be impacted by the information that is rendered and by how that information is collected/processed.
The number of Test Plans and Test Runs, depending on scenarios, can be considerably high, especially with CI/CD. As this report sums up quite a lot of information, please use it wisely.
