Within Mathematica you can call WolframAlpha
WolframAlpha["e^2 x cos(3x)", IncludePods -> {"Indefinite Integral"},
PodStates -> {"Step-by-step solution", "Show all steps"}]
Compare with
Integrate[E^2 x Cos[3 x], x] // Simplify

> Hi. By way of response to other posters, both Wolfram alpha (the web app) and Wolfram student assistant (ipad app) will show integration steps. It is frustrating this is not in Mathematica, per se. Although Mathematica may occassionally employ integration solutions that are obscure, many of the problems I have done in student assistant have yeilded useful solutions.
