Understanding when to leverage Katalon TestCloud and Katalon Runtime Engine (KRE) is essential to optimize your test automation strategy. Each tool serves a distinct purpose, from enabling scalable cloud-based test execution to ensuring robust performance in various environments. This guide will help you navigate their unique capabilities, empowering you to make informed decisions that maximize efficiency and effectiveness in your test automation.

You’ve written all of your test cases! Congrats, you’re on the right track to success. Now you need to execute them, and test execution needs to take place in a test environment. Those environments can be the make-or-break of your test result. In this article, we’ll explore the concept of a test environment in-depth and how you can best set it up.

Heuristics is the key to turn you into the Turkish Olympic guy. It is something that comes with experience. At a certain point, experts all develop that “sense” in their field of work. Repeated exposure to hundreds of problems helps them recognize patterns that beginners don’t easily see. Heuristics is not always foolproof, but it's good for immediate problem-solving.

“We build our solution on top of an AWS stack. It frees us up to think about creating innovative solutions and not worry about infrastructure”- Vu Lam, CEO of Katalon In order to help enterprise customers release faster and deliver on time, Katalon has built an integration where automation scripts can be stored in AWS CodeCommit and an AWS CodePipeline project can execute them using the integration.

“May Katalon be with you whenever you run your tests.” So you’ve heard of Katalon and decided to give it a try. We’re here to help you get the best experience possible out of it. In a way, Katalon serves as your entire software testing life cycle unified in one workspace. You get to do test planning, scripting (from no-code, low-code, to full-code mode), test management, test execution, and finally test reporting.

Imagine this: You’ve just rolled out a small update to your application, but suddenly a core feature stops working. Sound familiar? That’s where automated regression testing comes to the rescue. It's like having a diligent, tireless assistant that constantly checks your software for unintended side effects every time you make a change. Let’s dive into how automated regression testing can transform your software development process, saving you time, money, and sleepless nights.

Today, we are excited to unveil a suite of innovations that will transform your testing processes and elevate the quality of your software. From harnessing the power of AI for automated regression testing with TrueTest to expanding the capabilities of TestOps and redefining test automation with Katalon Studio 10, these new releases are designed to help you stay ahead in the ever-evolving world of software testing. Let's dive in!

In the landscape of API development, strict adherence to established standards is crucial for sustaining consistency, ensuring reliability, and enabling seamless compatibility across evolving environments. With the release of Katalon Studio 9.7, we are excited to introduce OpenAPI schema compliance validation. This significant enhancement extends our schema compliance testing capabilities to include OpenAPI and Swagger specifications.

Imagine you’re running a complex, distributed system—everything seems smooth until, without warning, a sudden failure brings the entire operation to a halt. What caused it? How can you prevent it from happening again? This is where chaos testing comes in. Chaos testing, or chaos engineering, is a proactive approach to discovering system weaknesses before they turn into catastrophic failures.

There’s an interesting term in agriculture called the pesticide paradox. When a pesky insect infestation is threatening a farmer’s hard-earned harvest, he sprays the crop with pesticide, killing (most of) them in an instant. What a glorious win of man against nature! But there’s a catch: the tiny percentage of those insects which fortunately survive will develop a natural resistance to the pesticide.
