Recording limitations and remote access challenges have affected desktop application testing
Katalon Studio has proven effective in our deliverables, particularly in designing the framework where other tools typically require coding in client libraries such as Python or Java. With Katalon Studio, there is no such complexity, allowing us to organize projects modularly based on folder structures without needing to write separate code. The self-healing feature for web application automation and its built-in CI/CD ecosystem integration eliminates the need for external tools for pipeline setup. Katalon Studio excels in CI/CD integration, providing an inbuilt ecosystem without the need for external setup, and it features a postings structure along with keyword and library availability. Newcomers to the team can easily adapt to the setup or project structure, which contributes to its popularity, along with its low-code or no-code capability that allows for a comprehensive platform supporting web, mobile, API, and desktop automation. The self-healing mechanism for test cases autonomously identifies issues with locators and ensures they continue functioning, which is impressive, along with the robust object repository. Katalon Studio has significantly aided our team, especially when clients expect deliveries for CI/CD integration that requires automation test scripts to run on a daily schedule. The self-healing feature automatically identifies available locators for elements in the DOM, ensuring that test cases remain functional. Katalon Studio has positively impacted our organization by facilitating faster delivery when clients have urgent requirements. We can deliver quickly based on urgency due to the features Katalon Studio provides. This has led to significant reductions in time spent on framework configuration, designing, and training individuals who are unfamiliar with the tool, helping us save both time and costs.

An easy-to-use tool that saves time and functions within a limited budget
The solution's reporting system should be clearer and easier to understand for a layperson. I and some other experts may be able to understand the solution's reporting system, but a layperson won't understand it. For a layperson, the solution should be easy to use. Price-wise, TestProject is an expensive product. The product's current price should be lowered to attract potential customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From the perspective of the user, I would say that this solution is better than UFT, and would encourage people to migrate from UFT to Katalon."
"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 most valuable feature is its automation security capabilities."
"Before using Katalon Studio, we spent weeks to verify all test cases manually for every major build, now we need only several days to fully perform regression testing, reducing the time to market greatly."
"One of the features that I like is Object Recognition. It worked very well, and it allowed me to create a dynamic expert based on my requirements."
"If a company is looking to buy a user-friendly software testing tool while having to pay less money, Katalon may be the best option as compared to UFT or TestComplete."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"It is good for API testing. It is also good for continuous integration testing. You can connect it to Jenkins."
"One of the valuable features the solution offers is the chance to be able to perform automatic tests by recording, and to create them without having coding knowledge."
"The product has a very good record-and-play functionality."
"The automation and AI are very good."
"Ability to carry out automatic testing without having coding knowledge."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Since implementing this solution, our code management has been reduced by 40% to 60%."
"The ease of web and mobile functional testing is pretty easy on TestProject."
"The script-less part of it was good for novice users."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be improved. Offering a discount on Katalon Studio licenses could encourage more users."
"Katalon lacks integration with other software, including integrating other languages like .NET and PHP."
"The solution can be further improved with better loading time."
"It would be helpful to have an automatic save feature."
"The product is comparatively slow."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"Katalon Studio sometimes restarts during automation, and as mentioned earlier, the app experiences lag, so those are the main areas that need improvement."
"We have had some issues when it comes to stability, which is something that needs to be improved."
"In an upcoming release, there should be a SaaS offering available."
"Technical support is an area they need to work on, they are too slow to resolve issues."
"Difficult trying to configure on more than one browser."
"I have had some difficulty trying to configure it on several browsers."
"A company would not be able to scale with just this solution."
"I and some other experts may be able to understand the solution's reporting system, but a layperson won't understand it."
"The support is a weak point since they discontinued the tool."
"TestProject needs better support for integration with other products to provide a better overall solution for test planning and test data management."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable. It has an average and competitive pricing compared to other vendors."
