Well, on a dyno, for no load we set the the dyno load to zero, and gently open the throttle up, so the rpm sweeps up from idle.
for full throttle, we open the throttle up all the way, and then adjust the dyno load to sweep through the full range of rpm. It is often easier to do that from the red line down.

«No load running» means that there is no output torque available. In other words, the throttle is adjusted just enough to maintain the chosen rpm constant.
«Full load running» means that there is the maximum torque that the engine can produced at the chosen rpm available at the crankshaft. This condition always happens at full throttle. To achieve that, you must apply a resistive torque on the crankshaft, otherwise the engine rpm will only increase until the engine's rpm limit (i.e. failure).
