Note:

When a report is generated, the rows required for the table are automatically inserted and any
variables below the table are shifted down.

2. In the MTS TestSuite Report ribbon, click Variable Table and then click Variable.

3. In the Title box, type the title that you want to appear in the report template.

4. Optional: select the Test View option.

Select the Test View check box to show all test variables in the report and recalculate all variables
in the common category.

Clear the Test View check box to show all variables for each test run in the report.

5. Use the following settings to define the variables that will appear in the variable table.

Select All Variables—these check boxes are variable property settings that were defined in the test.
Selecting these check boxes creates an AND function.

For example, if you select the Result and Calculation check boxes, only the variables that have the
Result AND the Calculation check box selected will appear in the table.

Select Category or Categories—the category selections determine the type of variables that appear
in the variable table. If none of the check boxes are selected, the table will contain all of the categories.
Selecting any of these check boxes creates an OR function.

For example, if you select both the Common and Specimen category check boxes, variables that are
part of the Common category OR the Specimen category are available to appear in the table.
