Hello,
I found that a big report crushes the report viewer. The report we can download from https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0EHXWVdmSJFc3Zub3JaT2ZqNW8 (CrashReport.zip). One crashes the viewer each time.
As I understood there is a problem with the viewer's system memory size, it is very big.
I need to solve the crash problem, it is above all.
I took a small investigation of the reason for the big report size.
In two attached test projects TestProjectForTelerik_BigReport and TestProjectForTelerik_SmallReport the same test actions are executed (tests set is the same too but there are some differences in test configurations).
1. Load www.telerik.com page
2. Come back to the main page
3. Click on a link to the products. The link is found by content (product's name) from data source (TelerikProducts.xls file, Products sheet)
But different ways are used to run tests in the projects.
In TestProjectForTelerik_SmallReport we start from SmallReportTest (use SmallReport test list from the project) and bind ClickProduct test to the data (the data source) directly.
In TestProjectForTelerik_BigReport we start from BigReportTest (use BigReport test list from the project) and bind IntermediateStep test to the data directly. Data binding is removed from ClickProduct test but this one must inherit the parent data source.
In IntermediateStep test we choose which test will be run next according to data from data source. In IntermediateStep we always run ClickProduct test. Please see comments in the IntermediateStep test for more information.
This way is very needed for my real project.
So, these two projects have very different report size for the small report it is 249674 bytes, for another 989670 bytes. The difference is about 4 times.
If steps count in ClickProduct test or row count in data source increases, size difference will be more.
As I can see in the report from TestProjectForTelerik_BigReport project, there are a lot of duplicated information in the report. The information from StepResults section of ClickProduct test is duplicated in DataIterationResults section of IntermediateStep test.
Please check this. Maybe there is a way to decrease the report size.
And as I said earlier Telerik.TestStudio.ResultsViewer crush must be fixed.
I need your help, thanks.

Thank you for allowing me some time.
I managed to review all details shared and I fully agree the sample project you have created might help us improve our performance in terms of test list results. I have submitted a feedback to our public portal and the case will be further investigated from the developers team. Here you could follow its progress.
In relation to the specific result file you provided I managed to reproduce the crash and submitted a bug report on your behalf to be inspected by the engineering team. Please follow its progress here. It will certainly be examined and a fix will be implemented as soon as possible.
Thank you very much for your valuable input and cooperation!
