I have recently run into an issue preventing me from executing tests from the command line after upgrading Katalon Studio/Runtime Engine to version 8.3.0. I can execute individual test cases as expected from Katalon Studio, but not when running a test suite or test suite collection using KRE. When executing a test suite using KRE 8.3.0, the browser fails to open and no error message in printed in the console output. See below:
Chrome driver is located at: D:\Users\****\Katalon_Studio_Engine_Windows_64-8.3.0\configuration\resources\temp\webdriver\chromedriver.exe
INFO: KATALON_JAVA_HOME: null

If the same test suite is run using KRE 8.2.5, the browser fails to open and the following error is printed to the console:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities.chrome()
The full stack trace is attached as a file.stacktrace.txt (11.6 KB)
OS: Windows Server 2016

I have tried disabling the driver auto update and replacing the KRE chromedriver with v99 and v101 to no avail.
My com.kms.katalon.core.webui.chrome.properties file:
{"CHROME_DRIVER":{"args":["--window-size\u003d1920,1080","--window-position\u003d0,0"]}}
My KRE command
katalonc -noSplash -runMode=console -projectPath="%PROJECT_DIR%\UI-Tests\%PROJECT_FILE%" -retry=0 ^
-testSuitePath="Test Suites/Regression Tests" ^
-executionProfile="qa" -browserType="Chrome" -apiKey="%KATALON_API_KEY%" ^
-consoleLog --config -webui.autoUpdateDrivers=true
If anyone else is experiencing a similar issue, please let me know. I have previously had no issues with KRE 8.2.5 for the entire time it was released. I’m very puzzled why rolling back from 8.3.0 to 8.2.5 didn’t solve my issue. If anyone needs more info or has ideas, please let me know.
