Save QTP Report as a Single HTML File

There are a lot of different solutions for improved reporting in QTP (for example, our very own ReporterManager). However, sometimes, you simple wish to export the entire report into a single HTML file, in order to copy / mail / archive it. Here’s a neat trick that will help you do that:

Open the registry editor, and go to
HKLM->SOFTWARE->Mercury Interactive->QuickTest Professional->Logger->Media->Log

There’s an item named “Active” under that key. Change it to 1 (it should be 0)

Now when you run a test (you need to restart QTP after the change), the results folder will include a LOG folder, with the entire log as a single HTML file. It’s a concise report, but it’s quite enough for most uses.
