Reports overview

Updated April 17, 2025 15:46

TestRail provides the ability to generate reports that aggregate different types of data to provide deep insights on testing processes. You can find these reports:

- On the Dashboard page, by clicking the CROSS-PROJECT REPORTS menu option - available for Enterprise license plans only.

- By selecting a Project and clicking REPORTS on the left menu bar for project-specific reports.

The following reports are available to be generated on the fly or scheduled for a more regular analysis. To learn how to configure report access and scheduling, please see the general configurations for reports page.

Cross-Project reports

Name	Description
Test Execution - Project Summary	Provides a global view of quality status across all projects, with a side-by-side comparison of individual project statuses. Use cases Identify which projects need more attention and which are closer to completion Individually for each project, support go/no-go decisions
Test Execution - User Workload	Displays the total, assigned, and unassigned tests across all projects, along with the total and percentage of test execution per user per project. Use cases Highlight tests that are missing assignment Identify team members who may need support or are on track

Cases reports

Name	Description
Cases - Activity Summary	Shows a summary of new and updated test cases. Use cases Track test case design progress Track test case changes
Cases - Coverage for References	Shows the test case coverage for references in a coverage matrix. Use cases Track test case coverage Discover test cases with no references Discover references with no test case coverage
Cases - Property Distribution Report	Shows a summary of test cases, grouped by a selectable attribute. Use cases Discover the proportion of designed test cases by their type Discover if there is enough focus on high priority test cases design Track test case automation progress
Cases - Status Tops	Shows the test cases with the highest amount of results for the selected statuses, grouped by status. Use cases Test cases with a high failed frequency help you identify problematic areas of your application Test cases with a high blocked frequency may have design or execution limitations that may need to be addressed
