Load Testing Projects

projects

The project menu only appears after you select a workspace.

From there you have access to all the contents of the workspace:

Project list

Projects

Several actions are available when placing your mouse over an existing project in the list:

Action Description
Create new Project Create new empty project.
Edit Project Opens the edition panel to let you change the project name and description.
Move Project Moves this project to another workspace.
Delete Project Lets you remove a Project in one click. All the components (VU, Scenario, test reports, etc.) of the project are also removed. This operation cannot be reverted so proceed with caution.

Info

The search functions are detailed in this section of the navigation page.

Create a project

When you click on create a new project, you will be prompted with this menu:

Projects

The new project will then be highlighted in the list with a icon tag.

Edit a project

Edit project

This screen allows you to change the name and description of your project.

For more info about tags, check the dedicated section.

Info

The description can contain markdown/HTML, it can be configured with our code editor.

Remove a project

To avoid mistakes, project removal can only be achieved by typing the project name as a confirmation is the dialog box:

Remove project

Warning

Deleting a project deletes all the data it contains (virtual users, scenarios, monitored machines, test reports, etc.).

Move a project

Move project

This option allows you to move your project into another workspace. This is useful when you need to merge your work with another team, or after someone left the organization to regroup everything under the same workspace. As the entire project is transfered, nothing is lost, design runtime and results will appear in the new workspace as they did in the old one.

Warning

If you transfer a project into a workspace that you do not own it may become unavailable to you. This is especially true when you do not have read or write permissions on the entire destination workspace.

Tags

Tags are short labels you can attach to a project or any of its elements, such as a version (v1, v2), an environment (dev, prod), a team name, or anything else useful. They are visible at a glance in the lists and can be used as filters to narrow down what you see.

How to use the Tags field

Tags field

The Tags field appears on every form that supports tags (project, Virtual User, Scenario, Monitoring Connection, Test Report). It works the same way everywhere:

  • Type a tag name and press Enter to add it.
  • Pick an existing tag from the autocomplete dropdown to reuse it. The dropdown matches any part of the tag name (not only the beginning), and lists tags already used anywhere in the project (on the project itself, Virtual Users, Scenarios, Monitoring Connections or Test Reports).
  • Click the × on a chip to remove it.

Hovering the Tags label opens a tooltip that summarizes these instructions, plus context specific to the current form. On the project edition page, the label is also clickable and opens this documentation page directly.

Tags tooltip

Project-level tags

Tags added directly on a project behave differently from tags added on individual elements.

1. They are copied to newly created elements. When you create a Virtual User, Scenario, Monitoring Connection or Test Report inside a project, that element starts with the same tags as the project.

Info

The copy happens once, at creation time. Adding or removing a tag on the project later does not change the tags of elements that already exist.

2. They let you pre-filter the lists you browse. When the current project has tags, the Project navigation menu shows an All / Project tags toggle next to the Browse Virtual Users, Browse Scenarios, Browse Monitor Connections and Browse Reports links.

Project tags pre-filter toggle

  • All (default): opens the list without any tag filter.
  • Project tags: opens the list with the project's tags applied as a starting filter, so you immediately see only the elements that share them.

The toggle is a navigation shortcut: once a list is open, you can still adjust or remove the tag filter from the list's filter bar. The toggle resets to All every time you switch project, so each project starts with an unfiltered view.

Editing tags on an element

You can edit the tags of an individual Virtual User, Scenario, Monitoring Connection or Test Report at any time from its edit dialog. These changes only affect this element; the project and the other elements are not modified.

Bulk update of tags

When you need to tag many elements at once, select them in the list (Virtual Users, Scenarios, Monitoring Connections or Test Reports) and open the more menu in the selection action bar. The Update tags action opens a dialog where you can:

Update tags menu

  • Choose Add tags to attach one or more tags to every selected element. Elements that already have a given tag are left unchanged.
  • Choose Remove tags to detach one or more tags from every selected element. Elements that do not have a given tag are left unchanged.

Update tags dialog

Click Apply to run the update. A progress dialog reports how many elements were modified, and a notification confirms the result. If every selected element is already in the desired state, an informational message is shown and nothing is changed.
