Consistent error when attempting to run test suite with latest version of Edge

I was able to answer my own question, and here are the steps I took to resolve the issue:

  1. Select ‘About Your PC’ and look for the value for OS build (in my case, it was 17134.228)
  2. Go to https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/ and locate the driver that matches the Win 10 OS Build (in my case, 17134), then download that version.
  3. On your machine running the tests, navigate to the configuration\resources\drivers\edgedriver folder where your Katalon Studio is installed. For safety, make a backup copy of the existing MicrosoftWebDriver.exe file.
  4. Copy the downloaded exe to this location, then re-run your tests with Edge

I assumed incorrectly that the version of MicrosoftWebDriver that came with the Katalon Studio 5.6.3 install was the latest version, but this was not the case. When I went through these steps and re-performed my tests, they worked as expected.
