We are thrilled to announce the release of Katalon Studio version 9.5.0 with the following new features and enhancements…

New features

  • [TestCloud integration] We have introduced Mobile Recorder and Object Spy with TestCloud devices. This option is only available if you have access to mobile native apps in your TestCloud subscription.

  • [TestCloud] We have added the ability to execute test cases, test suites, and test suite collections with mobile native apps on TestCloud devices.

  • [StudioAssist] We have added the ability to use StudioAssist with personal OpenAI and personal Azure OpenAI API key.

  • We have added the ability to execute tests with TestCloud in Katalon Studio using desired capabilities in Project Settings.

  • We have added a Shared Tunnel toggle in the TestCloud Tunnel Setup Helper dialog.

Enhancements

  • We have improved the performance when executing API tests.

  • We have enhanced the HTML and PDF report file to display detailed info when executed with TestCloud and mobile environments.

  • We have revamped the TestCloud configuration dialog so that you can easily choose between 3 types of TestCloud environment.

  • We have resolved some mutation events errors after upgrading to Manifest version 3.

  • We have added the ability to modify generated locators in mobile recorder, spy, mobile, and test objects.

  • We have added Chrome 125, Edge 125, and Firefox 126 compatibilities.

Bug fixed

  • We fixed an issue where Recorder automatically added Switch to Window Title actions when clicking on Web Recorder.

  • We fixed an issue where Import Open API 3 was not working for some specific files.

  • We fixed an unstable issue with CustomKeyword after upgrading to v9.3.1.

  • We fixed an issue where some of our users were unable to capture other objects that have the same XPath.

  • We fixed an issue where some users were unable to open test suite after terminating a test suite collection.

  • We fixed an issue where WebDriverManager downloaded the wrong driver version because it could not detect the browser version in Docker.

  • We fixed an issue where some users were unable to open test suite when renaming the Report folder.

  • We fixed an issue where WebUI.findWebElement was not working the same as in 8.x.

Changes

  • The Log in from Browser button no longer opens a new Windows browser tab. It now opens an embedded browser inside Studio. This change helps teams with strict Internet security to log in to Studio more easily.

  • The TestCloud and TestOps icons on the main toolbar are now merged into one and called Katalon Platform integration.

  • When AI Settings is disabled on your account, you cannot use StudioAssist with the Katalon AI service, but you can still use StudioAssist with personal OpenAI and Azure OpenAI key.

  • We have made minor UI adjustment on the Mobile Object Spy dialog.
