Pretty good free automation tool for people with no coding skills
What do you like best about the product?
Easy developing scripts with good training videos. nice and clean GUI.
Many templates to choose from that help you build and run your automation test scripts.
I think experienced testers can also enjoy using the tool since recording and keywords for fresh ones to build automation tests, whereas expert ones can have a full IDE to build advanced scripts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Cannot automate desktop applications, unlike some other licensed tools.
It's still under development And I think some bugs arise and should be taken care of on future updates.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Should give it a try, work still in development.
I think whether Katalon Studio can replace a powerful and beloved product as Selenium is not easy to conclude.

Best Automation Solution for Software Testing Team
What do you like best about the product?
Katalon Studio’s users could be the testers with limited technical knowledge. Katalon Studio hides all technical complexities behind the scene and provides friendly UI with the manual mode (user can drag-drop, select keywords and test objects to form test steps), but still keeps necessary weapons for more technically powerful users who are able to dig deeper into coding with the scripting mode that fully supports development conveniences like syntax highlighting, code suggestion and debugging
What do you dislike about the product?
At this moment I don't have any negatives on the tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are a lot of automation tools that do not require the user to be an expert to make use of them. So, next time, when you have a new test project with many test cases that fall into the mentioned situations above, take some time to consider an automation plan to make your release cycle faster and boost the overall productivity of the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Katalon Studio is a better solution than Selenium based open source frameworks. Built on the top of Selenium and Appium, Katalon Studio is a free and powerful automated testing tool for web testing, mobile testing, and API testing.

Every one in the testing team, even a manual tester can start with this tool as a first step to automation there by increasing the productivity of the team and less time wastage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes. It is a very good tool for starter testers, since it can raise your confidence level in automation and as we positivity of learning an automation tool. More over it will add to your resume.
Great for front end testing
What do you like best about the product?
I like how the captured objects are reusable and stored within the projects. It's nice and helps when reusing test cases later on.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it were easier to modularize and organize test cases and it were more clear on whether additional steps were needed to make a test case reusable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Katalon Studio takes care of our front end testing. We use it in tandem with Jenkins.
A tool that has come a long way in development to becoming a solid automation application
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, users can get up to spend in a relatively short period of time. Also, being that the app is free, that's a huge bonus.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its still in development, so once in awhile your have a change that doesn't work as intended. However, the developers are very pro active in addressing issues, in some cases have even removed a feature that was added that became problematic for users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Speed up the regression testing of our web app.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They offer tons of documentation, refer to it before assuming something does not work as intended. Some more advanced features are still a work in progress, and keep up with the latest updates, they add updated fairly regularly.
Great codeless test automation tool for creating simple, reusable and maintanable test suites
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly for beginer tester
I spent literally few minutes figuring out how this tool is working - really straithforward, simplistic and effective tool
More emphasis is put into true testing than to programming
Codeless tool - people with no programming background can ceate tests
Visual representation of test steps
Scripting option - scripts in Groovy language (Java family) makes test reusable and customizable. You can also write code in Java since these languages are fully compatible
IDE is just great - it gives you code completion, syntax highlighting and all of the other tools of professional code editors
Data driven tests
Free product
Much more options than other codeless test automation solution I tried

What do you dislike about the product?
You do't have option to continue recording test steps, however I heard that in new version this should be fixed
Occasionally freezes
Some small bugs
Sometimes is problem to click correctly into dropdowns and other controls - UI components could be more user friendly
More export option would be great

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Test automation - acceptance or E2E testing was really important to include in our team worflow.
Writing test in standard Selenium code based tools could be problematic for testers without programming experiences. Also this kind of codeless solutions give you option to create your test suites much more faster. You can also create automated scripts which can help you to focus on more creative tasks.

A free but pretty good automation tool for less technical testers and over
What do you like best about the product?
- An alternative for Selenium open source (for those who do not have many technical skills and be ready to take time build up structure on open source). As it’s built on top of the open-source Selenium and Appium frameworks, the tool allows testing teams to get started with test automation effortlessly and quickly by reducing the effort and knowledge required to learn and integrate these frameworks.
- Offers a full set of features to implement complete automated testing solutions for both mobile and web applications.
- The support team is friendly, helpful and dedicated with their job. So do not keep your queries just for yourself, send them tickets for help, they will shortly answer you. Or else, you can ask question on the forum (I guess the team prefer calling it “Community”).
- Last but not least, it’s free and powerful enough for my project’s requirement.

What do you dislike about the product?
- The documentation is somehow hard to understand. But recently Katalon Studio team has updated tutorial videos which I highly estimate. I think many users will like this way of tutorial.
- There is not many choices for scripting languages, Katalon Studio sỏa only support Java/Groovy. So with people who haven’t known and got along well with Java/ Groovy, it’s hard to use Katalon.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Anyway, this tool is cool, give it a try since you do not have to pay any cost, no trial, no limited using time, unless you have further demand that Katalon currently does not support, I think you can contact for more info. Enough reasons to check out Katalon.

- Mobile testing take time to capture and write code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most of project I have been been through ()simple website) are not too big to make full use of this automation tool. However, I think it would be very useful for big project which need a large QA team. The idea is not really new but has good prospects, worth to be recommended.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Katalon is a good approach for whom is new to automation test. You will quickly recognize the the usefulness of the tool. It;s worth a try.
