# Quickstart: your first report in 5 minutes

> A guided tour: from an Azure DevOps Test Plan to a polished report in five minutes.

This guided walkthrough takes you from a Test Plan to a shareable report — no configuration required.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open TestPulse" icon="rocket">
    In your project, go to **Test Plans** and open the **TestPulse** hub. If you don't see it, confirm the extension is installed (see [Installation](/en/getting-started/installation)).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a Test Plan" icon="list">
    Pick the Test Plan you want to report on from the plan selector. TestPulse loads its suites, test cases and latest results — read-only.
    <Note>Nothing is generated yet: TestPulse only reads. You can explore before exporting.</Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the defaults" icon="eye">
    TestPulse pre-fills a sensible report: title, cover page, the suite/case hierarchy, results and traceability. You can accept the defaults for your first run.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose an export format" icon="file-export">
    Select a format:

      <Card title="PDF" icon="file-type-pdf">Polished, printable, signed.</Card>
      <Card title="Word" icon="file-type-doc">Editable, signed.</Card>
      <Card title="Excel" icon="file-type-xls">Data-oriented.</Card>
      <Card title="HTML / PowerPoint" icon="presentation">Web share / slides.</Card>
    </CardGroup>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate" icon="bolt">
    Select **Generate**. TestPulse builds the document **in your browser** and downloads it. That's your first report.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What you just produced

By default your report includes the plan's **suite → case hierarchy**, the **latest result** per case, **traceability** to requirements, and a **cover page**. You can refine any of this later.
