Appium and Selenium steps in the same Test Case

We have integration and E2E tests that require performing steps in our web UI on a desktop then steps on a mobile device before then going back to the web UI to validate. Currently, Katalon does not allow a single Test Case to have both Appium and Selenium steps, because the device has to be defined at runtime and we can only define a single type of device at once.

This is a large blocker for us and we would have to create our own Appium integration to overcome this instead of utilizing Katalon’s built-in integration.

Hi Caleb,

I will share this with the team for consideration along with other requests. Katalon team very much appreciate your time and effort in making the tool better.

Thank you for using Katalon Studio,

Hey Katalon team , I hope till now you have developed something to resolve this issue. It would be great if Katalon can share some information here on this and their solution.
