Error description
In ODM 8.10 it is not possible to open the Excel report that is generated after running a test suite that uses a custom data provider cannot be opened. Microsoft Excel gives an error and the only way to open the report is by renaming the file from .xlsx to .xsl. Steps to reproduce: 1. Follow steps on this link word to word: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSQP76_8.10.x/com .ibm.odm.dcenter.samples/topics/smp_dc_bc_simu.html 2. In the "Running custom tests and simulations" section complete "Creating a custom test provider" and "Defining and running a test suite that uses a custom data provider" sections only. At step 3 of the "Defining and running a test suite that uses a custom data provider" section select the "Create excel file with report output values" checkbox. 3. Try to open the report that gets created. You won't be able to & MS Excel will complain.
