Tricentis - I have a test result stored in the result folder but it is not displayed in NeoLoad UI.

Situation

You have executed a test with NeoLoad GUI and for any reason the test did not complete properly. As a consequence you do see in the "$project_folder/results" folder your test result data but it is not displayed in your NeoLoad Controller UI under Test results section.

Solution

On NeoLoad side in order to display a test result an HTML report needs to be generated. For that NeoLoad relies on the "summary.db" file stored at the root of your project folder. This file is the last file that is created/updated when the test is completed.

If the test did not complete properly this "summary.db" file is probably missing. If it's the case it can be manually created by executing the procedure below:

• Close your NeoLoad project
• Grab the full path of your NeoLoad test result folder
• Open a DOS console and go to the NeoLoad installation folder under bin folder.
• Execute this command: NeoLoadCmd.exe -repairTestResult "C:\Users\NeoloadUser\Documents\Neoload Projects\Myproject\results\result_8eaa13bd-f35c-4e52-b3b3-1e98c5b8ca14"
  
  N.B: you need to replace the folder name by your test result folder. On Linux it's the same but with Unix paths.
  
  As a result of that command you should see such output:
  
  Generated Summary: C:\Users\NeoloadUser\Documents\Neoload Projects\Myproject\results\result_8eaa13bd-f35c-4e52-b3b3-1e98c5b8ca14\summary.db

The last step is to open your project in NeoLoad and the HTML report should be automatically generated. Depending on when you had your issue the processing of that HTML can take time. This is the pop-up that should see after opening your project:

Sometimes the summary statistics could all have 0 values. In that case you can filter your test result by time without reducing the duration and it will force the computation of these summary statistics. The filtering option is available in the Test Result section under Tools option.
