I made a Test Case named “CalleeTestCase” as follows:

```auto
return "Hello, ${name}"

```

I made a Custom Keyword named “mypack.CallerInKeywords” as follows

```auto
package mypackimport static com.kms.katalon.core.testcase.TestCaseFactory.findTestCaseimport com.kms.katalon.core.annotation.Keywordimport com.kms.katalon.core.webui.keyword.WebUiBuiltInKeywords as WebUIclass CallerInKeywords { @Keyword def callATestCase() { def greeting = WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase('CalleeTestCase'), ["name": "Nikolai"]) WebUI.comment("*** ${greeting}") }}

```

And I made a Test Case named “CallerTestCase” as follows:

```auto
import static com.kms.katalon.core.testcase.TestCaseFactory.findTestCaseimport com.kms.katalon.core.webui.keyword.WebUiBuiltInKeywords as WebUI// call a Test Casedef greeting = WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase('CalleeTestCase'), ["name": "Sergei"])WebUI.comment(">>> ${greeting}")// call the same Test Case indirectly via a Custom KeywordCustomKeywords.'mypack.CallerInKeywords.callATestCase'()

```

I executed the “CallerTestCase” and got the following output:

```auto
...08-27-2018 10:14:54 PM - [INFO] - >>> Hello, Sergei...08-27-2018 10:14:54 PM - [INFO] - *** Hello, Nikolai...

```

This proves that we can call a Test Case within Keyword.

I am afraid that this example is not very interesting.
