Katalon Studio is a free automation testing solution developed by Katalon LLC. The software is built on top of open-source automation frameworks Selenium, Appium with a specialized IDE interface for web, mobile and API testing.[1] Its first public release was in September 2016.

Approach

The test automation framework provided within Katalon Studio was developed with the keyword-driven approach as the primary test authoring method with data-driven functionality for test execution.[2]

The user interface is a complete integrated development environment (IDE) implemented on Eclipse rich client platform (RCP).[2]

The keyword libraries are a composition of common actions for web, API, and mobile testings. External libraries written in Java can be imported into a project to be used as native functions.[3]

The main scripting language is Groovy, Java [4] [5], and JavaScript and can be executed against all modern browsers, iOS, and Android applications supported by Selenium and Appium.[6]

Katalon Studio monthly release includes the up-to-date open-source drivers matching the latest web and mobile environments to reduce the project maintenance cost and configuration efforts.[7]

Product

Katalon Studio provides a dual interchangeable interface for scripting: a recording-tabular editor for the less technical users and a scripting IDE geared toward experienced testers to author automation tests with syntax highlight and intelligent code completion.[2]

Katalon Studio follows the Page Object Model pattern.[8] GUI elements and API methods can be captured using the recording utility and stored into the Object Repository which is accessible and reusable across different test cases.

Test planning can be structured using test suite with environment variables. Test execution can be parameterized and parallelized using profiles.

The remote execution can be triggered by CI systems via Docker container or command line interface (CLI).[9]

Debug information and Test reports can be viewed with Katalon Studio, exported to JUnit format, or analyzed by Katalon Analytics - Katalon cloud test reporting service.[10]

Integration [9]

Git for version control system and team collaboration.

Jira BBD plugins for BDD practices and bug submission.

Slack/email integration for notification and reports.

qTest integration for Test management.[11]

Kobiton [12]/Browserstack/Sauce Labs integration for cloud test environments.
