Extent Report generated name is not customizable in latest 4.1.0

[vishnuprakash9845]

Currently using the 4.1.0 version of Extent Report

Create MSTest Class with 2 Test Methods

Added the below code. Extent report is getting generated in the destination folder, but not with the name provided.

Actual: I gave ReportName: Extent.html to get created, but its creating index.html

Expected: It should create the report as per name provided [ Extent.html ]

In the destination folder this is what its creating

Its a small issue, but if its fixed it would be a great product to continue.

@ZimM-LostPolygon @anshooarora can you please help me on the above issue.

This is a bug currently in the newest version of extent reports..

If you use ExtentV3HtmlReporter then it works, like in this example:
var htmlreporter = new ExtentV3HtmlReporter(ExtentReportPath + "Data" + DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM-dd-yyyy hh-mm-ss") + ".html");

But Visual Studio will give you a warning that ExtentV3HtmlReporter is outdated.

The newest one is called ExtentHtmlReporter without the V3. But with this one, the output files name is always "index.html"

Just add the V3 to your example code, then it will work. Im curious if this nuget package ever will be fixed tho.

Do we have an update when this will be fixed?
