A Test Case can call other Test Cases.  
[https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/call-test-case.html](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/call-test-case.html)

I would rather do as follows:

1. make 3 Test Cases

- Test 1 - login
- Test 2 - update account profile
- **Controller** - calls Test 1 and Test 2, passing customer data as parameters

1. make a Test Suite, which is bound to the Data (Customer A, B, C). The Test Suite calls the Controller test case with param A, B or C.

When you execute, you will see the following behavior for example

```auto
Test Suite invoked Controller(A): fails
Test Suite invoked Controller(B): fails
Test Suite invoked Controller(C): pass

```

I don’t need this.

**Controller Test Case** pattern makes many problems simpler.
