Expansive integrations boost automation potential across devices
I am in the field of product research and am familiar with Katalon Studio for product comparisons and test automation. Even though I am not an active tester, I have created a few tests using Katalon Studio Some of our customers use Katalon Studio, however, our own product, Tangene, is a…

Helpful solution that enables us to execute our use cases
There's only one thing that I think needs improvement. When I started off using this solution, I used the Google search engine to learn how to use the tool. I would also check with my colleagues who have a lot of knowledge about it. Selenium has fields of information available. If you click on that field there will be an explanation about how to use the tool. It will be a lot easier to understand if Micro Focus included this feature. It is easy to find with the search button, but it would be a great help to the users who are new to this tool.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is the ease of use of the solution."
"We can write code in Java and it is easy to link to other JARs that we find on the internet, which is very handy."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"Katalon Studio is user-friendly."
"The report generated using Katalon Studio is extremely valuable."
"The best feature is the split up between test cases and the test object. This allows us to easily change an error."
"This solution is very helpful to me. I use it to execute my use cases without a manual interface."
"The solution is quite stable with SAP. It's nice. I use it extensively."
 

Cons

"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"There is not much support offered for the free version, which is something that could be improved."
"The product is comparatively slow."
"Object Spy is brittle. When I try to capture objects, I have to proceed multiple times before it works."
"Now we are having difficulties in using it and had to limit our automation experts to the features that Katalon allows us to use for free. It was free access and they claimed that it would be free for all time."
"Katalon Studio's pricing is expensive."
"I would like to see improvements in how Katalon Studio works with iOS applications, especially with React Native applications."
"The solution shouldn't be so tightly integrated with the ALM tool that they have. It should have its own base rather than the repository."
"There's only one thing that I think needs improvement. When I started off using this solution, I used the Google search engine to learn how to use the tool.
