  4. Monitor playback status: View the status indicators in the upper right corner of the NeoLoad interface during the playback process. These indicators provide real-time feedback on the progress and success of the played user path.
  5. Correctly resolve issues: If errors or warnings occur during playback, please review the details provided by NeoLoad and take appropriate action to resolve any identified issues or inconsistencies.
