Solution 1:[1]

I don't think that using Badboy (whatever it is) is the best approach to create a JMeter test script. Looking into your error details:

CannotResolveClassException: node

I recall the fact that the last JMeter version which was able to open JMeter test plans starting from <node> was JMeter 2.13

If you really need to open the .jmx script recorded by Badboy you need to get JMeter 2.13

However be informed that according to JMeter Best Practices you should always be using the latest version of JMeter so if you can re-record your test scenario, it's better to stick to the latest stable version of JMeter and use HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.

Solution 2:[2]

you may try installing jmeter plugin manager and add it in lib/ext folder. hope that works for you.
