Answered question

Which files and/or directories should be added to .gitignore?

I'm using git cvs for collaborating a NeoLoad project. Currently we have the following NeoLoad specific files and directories added to the .gitignore file.

/results/*
/*.bak
/*.bak.old

Are there any additional files or directories, that are only necessary on a local workstation?

I think there's a misunderstanding. Your project is not under control using NeoLoad like i originally thought. When it's the case you should see a "team" folder with .git folder (hidden) and the .gitignore file.

 If i'm correct i would suggest you to go into the NeoLoad preferences to change the format of the configuration project. It's under Preferences-->Projects settings tab-->Advanced

The goal is to switch the configuration to xml files instead of a zip file. And this is the content of my .gitignore file in my project:

 

/config.zip
/config*.zip
/config.zip.bak.old
/*.bak
/.~lock.*#
/config/
/reports/
/comparative-summary/
/recorded-requests/
/recorded-responses/
/recorded-screenshots/
/results/
/SqlTemp/

That .gitignore file is already configured properly by NeoLoad so you should be good with the default settings.

@Nouredine A.: Sorry, but your answer isn't very clear to me. After creating a plain new NeoLoad project, there is no .gitignore file (and before you ask: I did list all the files). But maybe you can give me a hint on when .gitignore will be generated or simply what the default settings are. I couldn't find it within the documentation.
