Robust test automation in Katalon Studio starts with stable test objects. Flaky tests almost always trace back to one root cause: brittle locators that break the moment the UI changes. The best approach is to use unique, static attributes like id or custom data-qa attributes. When those aren't available, CSS and XPath are your tools. This post covers how to write each type of selector, when to choose one over the other, and how to handle dynamic attributes using contains() and starts-with(). At a glance.

Your developers are shipping more code than ever. GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and tools like them have fundamentally changed developer throughput - some teams are seeing 40-76% more code per person per sprint. That is the headline everyone celebrates. The part that keeps engineering leaders up at night is the other side of that equation: your testing pipeline has not changed at the same pace. Tests that used to gate two releases a week now need to gate ten.

It is Monday morning. Your VP of Engineering just forwarded a company-wide memo: every team needs to demonstrate AI adoption by end of quarter. At the same time, you learned last week that your QA budget was trimmed by 15%, because leadership assumes AI will "make testing more efficient." And your developers? Thanks to Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code, they are now shipping 76% more code per person than they were two years ago.

February introduces practical improvements across Test management, TestCloud, and TrueTest that help teams move faster while maintaining better control over testing operations. Here's what we have released.
