Show correct "Tested By" user in Test Case Result when running an Automated Test Case

When running an automated Test Case (such as UFT, for example), the "Tested By" section that exists in the Test Case Result will show the user who is registered in the Adapter, instead of the user who is running the test. This information is misle...
