If your are using VS2008 I also have an answer on IAmUnknown. Which updates the above answer which is based on VS 2005 trx format

If you need to validate the schema before parsing/transforming it, you can find the XSD file in the Visual Studio install dir (via http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dhopton/archive/2008/06/12/helpful-internals-of-trx-and-vsmdi-files.aspx):
Note, that the XSD schemas are available with all visual studio installs in the:
%VSINSTALLDIR%\xml\Schemas\vstst.xsd
file directory, along with many other schemas.
Since this file is XML you could and should use xsl to transform it to another format. The IAmUnkown - blog has an entry about decoding/transforming the trx file into html.
You can also use .NetSpecExporter from Bekk to create nice reports. Their product also uses XSL, so you could probably steal it from the downloaded file and apply it with whatever xsl-application you want.
Recently I wrote one trx to html convertor which is python based, have a look https://github.com/avinash8526/Murgi
you can also try trx2html
