Clone a repository (GIT)

NeoLoad makes it possible to collaborate on test projects using a GIT collaboration server. For more information about configuring the connection to a GIT server, see Configure the connection to a collaboration server.

Once the connection to the GIT server is configured in NeoLoad 9.0, the collaborative project can be retrieved from the server by using the Clone Repository command accessible via the Share menu.

The Repository path field must be filled in with the path to the repository shared on the GIT server. The path entered in this field must end with “.git” to be valid.

The URL field displays the URL to the project shared on the GIT server. It matches the information entered in the Collaboration Preferences menu.

The Branch field can be filled in with the branch to be checked out after cloning the repository. The field can also be populated with the tag or commit id to check out.

The refresh button allows retrieving the branches available on the repository and choosing the one to check out.
