An invention is provided for creating a test summary report. A test application is executed on a platform, where the test application is executed using a status utility having functions that generates XML code. The test results are generated in a XML enabled format using the status utility, and are output to a test execution log file.

The logically arranged XML test reports file is converted into a HTML test summary report.
