The macros used in the file path for most ResultListeners will ensure a unique file name is created for every TestPlan run.

For example, the settings below will automatically use a timestamp and verdict to create the report name. The output will look something like:  
`RampResults-2018-04-25-11-02-02-Pass.csv`

Several other macros and environment variables are supported. Please refer to the EditorHelp.chm file located in your TAP install directory for more information.
