August 14, 2019

4.0

Pros

Team Collaboration, Test Management, Code snippets functionality.

Cons

UI could be improved to have less clutter and Test Verification tab should have facility to open in side window for easy code writing.

Reason for choosing Katalon Studio

Because of more functionalities in Team Collaboration.

### "Automation Tools that makes newby Automation Engineer can play around like a pro"

November 23, 2021

4.0

its very easy tools to use especially if you don't have any experience with automation tool. Pretty easy to install and configure so junior team can easily install and create automation for your service (web,api, and mobile). Basically if you are newby once you try this tools your manager or other peers can see you like a pro.

Pros

\- Easy to use because it has feature record and play so no need coding skill to use their feature - Good user interface - No need to worry about web driver like other automation tools - Katalon has feature to support Web , Mobile, API automation testing - It has feature to support Continuous Integration testing tools - It has ability to handle cross browser testing

Cons

\- Its use pretty big memory so some times its impact to performance issue (like crash or slow) when run many scenario - only Katalon 7+ version licensed owner, that able to use debugging feature - its limited to Java and Groovy

### "Good tool for API Automation but not so good for mobile UI"

August 14, 2019

3.0

API Automation - It is good UI Automation - Not good

Pros

Well organized and easy to use. For APIs its straight forward

Cons

Mobile UI automation is quite tough to setup. Android automation, once we make a script using the a particular mobile using the recorder, we were not able to use it on another model phone. When recording, the ids which the Katalon Studio is creating were changing for the next phone and hence it is not recognizing the on other phones. On the Iphone UI automation, most of the Iphones are not getting recognized. We spent 2 months on doing research and it is pretty inconsistent. Finally we moved just to Appium and manually create the scripts which is the reliable solution from years.

Reason for choosing Katalon Studio

Open source and appeared easy at the beginning but later for UI Automation it is the toughest to set it up

### "Front end web testing, with ease"

October 8, 2019

4.0

We have to deploy software to numerous systems, numerous times per month. Katalon offers the flexibility to run some basic sanity checks to ensure our deployments were successful, without a ton of manual testing hours to verfiy.

Pros

Learning curve is relatively quick and easy to get going with your first few basic tests. There is also a lot of documentation out there if you get stuck on something.

Cons

The design is horrible. It feels like interacting with an app built in the early 2000s. BUT, it works well.

Reason for choosing Katalon Studio

Katalon offers a comprehensive web testing solution with CI/CD components. It supports Web, Android, and iOS applications. Native plugins integrate with Jenkins, Git, JIRA, and qTest. All of these were on my list of requirements when selecting a solution, and Katalon checked them all!

I had a handful of scripts I was using with Cypress and then a 3rd party vendor we integrate with did a random version bump and it rendered all my tests useless. There was no way around it. Katalon Studio is able to get past the problem that Cypress could not.

### "Makes life easy"

August 14, 2019

4.0

We have managed to fill in the gaps that Postman has left wide open in being able to share reports with teammates, using BDD/Cucumber in API testing, and being able to integrate with Jira. To be able to produce anything similar with postman would require tons of custom Node.js which would be difficult to use for our less technical team members.

Pros

What I like about this software is the fact that I can perform API, Web UI, and Mobile Applications testing all in one suite. I like the fact that the software is based on Eclipse, Java, and Selenium, and comes with all the drivers ready to go. It makes life easier for me who have to deal with a lot of the more technical components, but allows others on our team, who aren't as technical, drag and drop my scripts using the UI provided. I like the fact that the software encourages the Page Object Model and also makes Cucumber much easier.

Cons

You guys are making improvements on your reporting tool, but it used to be a major headache. Other than that, no major headaches.

### "Good option for automation"

August 14, 2019

4.0

Despite I've had to deal with many issues using Katalon Studio, I think it is a great tool with a lot of potentials that need to mature. That's why I bet for Katalon Studio instead of other tools like ReadyAPI.

Pros

1- that you can use cucumber scripts along with groovy for automating test cases 2- Katalon Analytics is great

Cons

1- you can not open more than one project at a time 2- it's very heavy, it consumes a lot of resources. I think it could be improved in terms of RAM and CPU management. 3- katalon analytics needs more improvement, there are some issues in the UI. 4- the logging motor can be better, right now is very unusual if you run multiple test suites at a time with suite collection and try to watch the logs for each and every test suite, you get lost and it's hard to know even when it finished executing. 5- The Katalon Studio UI (at least mac version) it's complicated to use when you create a Request, it's hard to define the variables and params since the components used are very archaic, some time you think you save (according to the common behavior in most of the tool) but you actually dont and lost all changes. That can be improved. 6- The way Katalon manage the project files etc. it's very complicated to deal with those non-sense files (for end user) and the repos, it generates a lot of conflicts everytime.

Currently we've implented execution of several SC that must be executed every 5min,each SC has UI tests and Data Base tests.

Pros

Self healing is just great, Katalon testops is really good it has everything a I need all in one platform.

Cons

The possibility of analyzing a report should not be KSE's thing.

February 3, 2022

5.0

In the past 2 years experiencing Katalon Studio, Our test cases based on web application were easily managed, automated and matained by the team, even without technical skills required.

Pros

It is easy to use and easy to install. Alao easy to manage when implementing cicd to your project or team.

Cons

It requires you to log online before using it offline

Since Katalon Studio is java/groovy based, and I'm very knowledgeable to those programming languages. I am eager to use it more rather than starting and configuring automation from scratch which can burn a lot of time and effort to the team

### "Katalon Studio"

August 14, 2019

4.0

I was new to my company and I was on a new project. The tool selected by someone else wasn't going to be a fit (Cypress) we need a tool that could do proper E2E testing not a Unit test tool like Cypress. Katalon allowed me to catch up and to get the automation back on track quickly. I found it very easy to use as it was much like the commercial tools I have used for the last 18 years

Pros

Ease of Use Similar to the commercial tools I have used Lots of options to create custom code

Cons

Object Recognition is a bit clumsy. It needs a spy that will give relative XPath for objects. Currently it gives a full Xpath which is unreliable.

Reason for choosing Katalon Studio

Price. I would have needed to work through a procurement process and all for a tool that didn't offer much more benefit over Katalon

### "My day is incomplete if i have not used Katalon"

August 18, 2019

4.0

There was a time when i was in a big black-hole wondering which tool would come to my aid as my job was to test various modules in the context of business intelligence. I spent time trying different tools but my search was worth it when i discovered that Katalon studio tool has most of the features that I can start using without having to learn too many technical concepts or go through tedious steps of installations.Now i recommend it to all my colleagues every time they complain about some things that are not working in our home born tools.

Pros

User friendly UI, support team's response and openness to suggestions, one tool for multiple tasks

Cons

It could be more dynamic in terms of recommending error / corrections

### "Friendly enough for junior testers and flexible enough for advanced engineers"

September 16, 2021

4.0

Pros

You're able to start creating UI scripts right away and then be able to figure out how you want things laid out as you go along. To get Katalon to work the way you want, you do have to do a fair amount of customization. By that I mean figuring out how you want to model your tests and test objects, whether it's UI, API, or a hybrid. This may sound bad, but there's enough there to start out with that you're not hindered by initial setup if you're already coming from another tool or similar framework. Groovy AND Java work well in Katalon with Groovy being the main language for scripting. Groovy is VERY forgiving.

Cons

Refactoring is probably my biggest gripe. You can easily refactor variables and shared code in Eclipse, but that seems to be a thing that is missing in Katalon. When it comes to updating test case names or the web objects, those get updated across the board enough, but not when it comes to passing variables and keywords around. The need to customize a fair amount for satisfactory integration with something like JIRA/Zephyr. Updating doesn't always work (I use a Mac). When I start executing tests, there's usually a delay/lag when things actually start or report.

### "Great Automation Tool"

October 20, 2021

4.0

My overall experience with the product is very good, I have explored this tool to the core. it provides you nice reporting format and also you can configure it with jenkins which made my life very easy.

Pros

I would say, this is the best automation tool if you have very least experience on automation testing. with least knowledge on automation, you can start using this tool. It provides you in built functionality to select the xpath of objects which is known as self healing. This feature is a savior if you find difficulty finding xpaths of the objects. It has extensive knowledge base, very nicely maintained by katalon community which will answer most of your questions.

Cons

the only drawback which I have seen so far is that, its kind of slow in performance if your project size is very big.

Reason for choosing Katalon Studio

Katalon Studio fulfills our needs the best, it has record and play option, as well as scripting for masters in programmers and also it provides manual mode, if you dont want to make your hands dirty in programming.

### "“Free Tool, Serves The Automation Needs For The Applications Used at My Workplace”"

April 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

I started using Katalon Studio a year ago and it serves the automation needs for the applications I use at my workplace. It’s free of cost which is a huge bonus, easy to automate and user friendly. To start with it’s very simple to create a record and playback script which can be edited using a manual and script mode with lots of inbuilt keywords to perform validations. My basic knowledge on Java enabled me to create new custom keywords and methods in Katalon library. I could efficiently use the Built in reports to consolidate the test results. Data driven testing support helped to cover all possible test scenarios. I managed to use the Integrations with JIRA which worked perfectly fine and saved a lot of time for documenting test evidences and integration with GIT served the script version control. Joining the Katalon Community was very helpful to get online support and obtain solutions to my queries using this forum. The community is open to suggestions and they do consider the required improvements to incorporate in the future versions they release. I would suggest every user with minimum coding experience give it a try as you do not have to pay any cost and no limited using time

Cons

Every automation tool has some drawbacks, but I managed to nd workarounds for each stoppers. Since Katalon studio is a tool that is still developing, I expect it will be more powerful in near future, supporting more functions and needs of the user.

October 20, 2021

I've experience working on iOS automation testing using the Xcode tools, but I felt Katalon is the best tool for automation.

Pros

Firstly, I've to tell you about the interface of the IDE. It is so easy to navigate and I can view all the required information on the screen without expanding new tabs.

Cons

Its object spy is a little laggy while using complex iOS applications. But based on its functionality, the lag can be acceptable.

### "Katalon Studio for UI automation"

June 26, 2020

5.0

Katalon is coming all real well especially for the people who does not how to use Visual studio and eclipse. It is more user friendly.

Pros

We are using Katalon Studio for UI automation. Some of the Pros about this software are 1. Free licensing and hence no cost to the company 2. Ability to integrate Katalon studio with the the latest automation tools such as Appium, Selenium and Win AppDriver 3. Ability to record the UI objects using Katalon UI Recorder 4.Ease of use for Manual testers, since recording option is available 5. Support for Groovy and Java languages. 6. Katalon test cloud to host mobile automation test cases.

Cons

The biggest disadvantage with Katalon is the ability to debug the code at run time. When a code gives an error, the compiler moves to the next line without letting us know what the real error is. Also support for external data source is very limited like connecting to excel or SQL.

February 24, 2022

4.0

It's very useful tool for automation developers , Have lot of predefined functions it's making easy work and time saving ,compare to other tools while designing script we can save time up to 60%.

Pros

Good feature have in testops to schedule build in different environment , it's makes easy to execute in different platforms parallelly.

Cons

While scheduling build in testops either cloud or local it's being in "Quee" longtime. And some time with out executing it's showing result "Pass" it's a defect we already raised to support team. And while active the local agent it's taking couple of minuities to show the agent in online.

### "The best Automation tool right now in the market"

April 18, 2019

5.0

Katalon Studio being a very robust tool has provided a new dimension to my automation testing needs. I now have the ability to automate most of my tests in a very quick and simple way with this great tool and also provide more coverage for mobile testing. Overall, in the current world, no one beats this tool when it comes to test automation. I highly recommend anyone who wants to learn test automation or even to use for their projects to opt for Katalon Studio. There are lots of resources available and forum is very interactive and helpful.

Pros

It is very user friendly and has loads of functionalities that makes automation testing look so easy and simple. Apart from providing automation solution for web, mobile, and api platforms it also has very useful add-ons to connect to test management tools which makes it very interesting to link tests and bugs directly .

Cons

I would prefer that they have some more extensibility for desktop app like java apps, spring etc

April 18, 2019

If you want to trust your automation must try katalon studio. its come with all framework setup It's Free! Lot of new feature comes every month or 2 months. Really like the debug mode option saves lot of time when debugging the automation code. Mobile,API,Web automation in tool. Works on top of selenium all selenium scripts can use here as well as jar files.

Cons

Still lot of room for improve Documentation should improve Copying variable across call test cases is bit difficult and time consuming Still popularity of tool is not that much that's why less community support compare to selenium

### "I still can't believe it's free"

August 14, 2019

4.0

Pros

It's packed with features, which comes in handy when you want to perform many tasks with one single tool. Getting started is easy, even for beginners; I have a few years of experience in automation with pure scripting and transitioning to a UI based tool was like going from riding a horse to driving a sports car. SpyWeb is incredibly useful, I even prefer it to the recorder, which may seem faster at first, but in my experience it's been far more efective; selecting the right locator immediately after capturing the TestObject really saves time. Databinding in test suites is a blessing, very easy to use and drive tests from this data.

Cons

The UI is a bit clunky, not very intuitive, and I guess the word is "overpopulated". There are many options, buttons, dropdowns, popups, which can be confusing. The learning process is fast at first, but when you are forced to use extended keywords, conditionals, method calling, the tool becomes a nightmare for beginner/intermediate users. I usually just write methods in script view, but many users have no experience in coding and really struggle with the UI assembly of methods or binary statements. Debugging is somewhat confusing as well, but that's not so important in my opinion. The application takes way too long to \*start\* running tests as the size of them increases (the execution is really fast though).

### "Helping in regression testing for my application"

April 18, 2019

4.0

Katalon is good tool for automation testing and easy to learn. It have good feature of record and play back which avoids script for the tester. All versions of the Katalon is not stable for some of the feature but it is able to automation large number of the test cases like regression testing. Using katalon we also doing POC for CICD process using Katalon and Jenkins CI tool. I have worked on almost 100 plus test cases using Katalon tool and find it is good for automation testing. In fact, in my organization we have setup one for whole team for katalon related issue and also have purchased Katalon support for enterprise level for technical issues related to Katalon.

Pros

Katalon have good feature of record and play back which avoids script for the tester. It is keyword driven testing tool. Recently, Katalon launch plugin feature which is very great to have to it as plugin replaced some of the keyword written by our team. Also, anyone can use this tool like technical and non-technical member.

Cons

Windows testing is not available in Katalon. Sometime tool behaved unexpected like test cases fails and at same time some test cases get pass. Not stable tool.

### "Katalon is my daily use software for testing"

April 18, 2019

5.0

I used appium before I know katalon. I think katalon is easier compared with appium. Especially for verify the element displayed or not. In Katalon, we have special method to verify element not exist. Katalon is more user friendly and easier to manage the test case.

Pros

It is convenient and integrated with Selenium and Appium. It almost has all the features what Sele/App have. Besides, it has its own defined methods which can be used very efficiently to do the testing work. For example, which you want to scroll to a certain text, all you need to do is use scrollToText() without handling the XY coordinate. I truly thank Katalon for making my work easier!

Cons

I think one feature I am not satisfied is handling the webview in mobile apps. I know there is a method in Katalon which allow us to switch from native apps to webview. But it seems like it does not work for me. When I post the question in forum, I did not get the solution neither. Currently I am working on testing hybrid apps with webview in it. I hope one day you can fix this.

August 5, 2019

4.0

Katalon Studio has been a great addition to my workflow. It's provided much needed functionality and has saved me lots of time when it comes to testing. The learning curve wasn't so steep and I was able to write some useful tests right out of the box.

Pros

The beginner friendly aspect of this software makes it great for anyone to begin testing right away. Having the option of capturing browser actions without the need to necessarily having to write the script from scratch made it very straightforward to use. At the same time, having the option to easily customize the script makes it very flexible and helps get necessary testing done quickly.

Cons

The only issue I've ran into while using this software was some bugs when testing on certain browsers. At one point I had some issues when attempting to run a test on Safari due to some driver issues. There are also some small bugs when running tests on Internet Explorer with window sizing. There were some workarounds for these issues and I was still able to test on all browsers.
