Configure and Generate Reports
Reports are generated in accordance with their configuration. The reports can be configured to generate by applying filters on the Test case, Test Cycle, Test Plan, Execution, Story, and Defect fields. Reports can be generated for a single project as well as for cross-projects. QMetry preserves the last used filter criteria for the user; however, the user can save the filter by a naming convention. These saved filters can be used to generate the Dashboard report.

Apply Filter Criteria
The report is configured based on the following criteria.
Project
By default, the current project gets selected in this Filter. The Jira browse project permission is required to select a project in this filter. You can also select multiple projects and apply filters on system as well as custom fields to generate the cross-project report.
Filter By
You can define the criteria and apply the filters based on these criteria. You can apply filters to get desired data. The filters can be applied to various fields of the Test case, Execution, Test Cycle, Test Plan, Requirement(Story), and Defects. Once the filter is applied and the report is generated the filter is preserved for the user until it is changed again.
You can filter test cases, test cycles, and test plans on system fields as well as custom fields.
Note: The ability to filter on custom fields is available for v4.1.8 and above.
These custom fields are also displayed when you export the report in Excel.
For example, custom fields created for the Test Case module (from Configuration > Project Configuration > Custom Fields) appear on the drop-down list along with system fields. You can construct filter criteria based on custom fields to apply to test cases. The report is generated for the filtered test cases.
