I have a number of Test Suites in Katalon Recorder where a button on the webpage I’m testing just got a new name. Is there a way to just do a Find and Replace All to make this name change in all of the Cases within each suite? Like you might do in Microsoft Word? I have about 8 tests with about 100 Cases each, most of which utilize this button.
I would love to see this, it would make script maintenance so much easier at times. @ThanhTo ![]()
(e.g. a selector you use multiple times needs updating, or improving, search and replace, job done in moments!)
Hi Eric and Guy,
Thanks for sharing this with us. As @ThanhTo has mentioned earlier, we’re re-directing our efforts into platform initiatives, so right now we temporarily are holding off on Katalon Recorder (you may notice from the slow release cadence after 5.9.0 - we tried to make the UX pleasant before holding off - if there’s any feedback for it’d be greatly appreciated).
Thank you for your patience and we will share with you about the new platform updates soon.
@vu.tran I’m aware of both the standstill on KAR releases, plus what @ThanhTo had previously communicated around this shift in focus for now. Do you have any estimated timelines around when progress may resume on KAR again?
Are we getting any closer to seeing a new version of Katalon Recorder being released, yet? ![]()
Hi @guy.mason,
Thank you for your patience and your interest in KAR. As shared earlier, we are focusing on an active development of web authoring feature on Katalon Platform in 2023. With that said, KAR will remain as is and the new feature will be incorporated in our Platform. If there is any other changes made, we will inform users on this forum. Hope this helps!
Any further visibility you can share with the community around timelines for this work would likely be appreciated by others as well. I understand that KAR will remain a part of the ‘Katalon Platform’, so it will see future development, but if web authoring is the only focus for 2023, then we may not see updates this year if this is the case?
Sure thing, we will provide the product roadmap on our forum soon.
Would still love to see this feature happen.
Hi @Elly_Tran,
I think we can raise a ticket for our KR team about this feature request as well.
Thanks em!
While you are waiting for the update, there are third-party applications that can do search and replace, such as Komodo Edit (free version). I loved the version 7.5 but the version 12 is a bit so-so, but it still works. I just had to do a Search and Replace All a couple months ago. Where I really like it is when I search the project for a phrase or keyword–very fast.
You can look for other applications that can do the same thing–until Katalon Team gets your request done. ![]()
