How can I export Test details including steps from "Call tests" ?

Question

To simplify the test redaction and maintenability, we are using elementary tests that are called into other tests.

To export the test details (with each step), we were using X-ray export but we noticed it didn’t export the information associated to Called Test, leaving only an empty line.

How can we export tests details including called tests details ?

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
I tried using Better Excel but I don't find any attribute matching the test steps.
Is there a specific operation to do to have it available ?
Regards,

Hello,

you can use the Better Excel Exporter add-on for Jira.
This add-on allows you to export test cases with their test steps and comments, including called tests details.

you can use the "Test Report" or "Test Runs Report" templates and customize them to include the additional information you need.
