Open a NeoLoad project
A NeoLoad project is an NLP file which is stored by default in the user directory C:\Users\<user>\Documents\NeoLoad Projects\, as described in NeoLoad project files
An existing project can be opened:
-
from the NeoLoad welcome page, in the Recent Projects
-
in the NeoLoad menu with the File > Open command
When the project to open has been designed in a NeoLoad version older than NeoLoad 8.2, it is migrated and updated automatically, as described in Migrate projects.
When opening a project compatible with NeoLoad 8.2, the Sanity Check wizard may be displayed. The Sanity Check dialog displays existing alerts:
-
on a test design: Project Sanity Check, or
-
on the User Path validation: Execution Sanity Check
It makes it possible to identify potential inconsistencies of scenario components in their logical and hierarchical structure fix them and deliver a high-quality scenario or launch a feasible test.
Issues raised are classified in two levels: warning or blocking.
| Icon | Meaning | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
Warning | The project contains errors. |
|
Blocking | The User Path validation cannot be launched. |

Open password-protected projects
NeoLoad projects can be password-protected.
You can opt to open a password-protected project without entering the password. In this case, NeoLoad permanently deletes confidential information from the project, such as passwords or sensitive information in variables.
