Sometimes a team need to leave Microfocus ALM for various reasons, or you need to get relevant info from ALM projects to shut it down.
It's easy enough to extract most information from ALM via the Dashboard -> Analysis -> Report functionality.
However, with these reports no attachments are included. This small utility parses any HTML report for links to attachments and downloads these attachments to a local folder and updating the links to the local attachment sources.
