People… this is a request for Katalon Specialists™ to step up and make themselves known.
Click here to see the problem I'm trying to solve:
If I see a post for help and the user is talking XPath stuff, I’m probably going call out @Brandon_Hein. If I see someone asking about pipeline stuff, probably @Ibus. Licensing? @ThanhTo or @devalex88. Desktop Testing? @duyluong. Mobile? @Chris_Trevarthen.
But there are so many parts of Katalon (it’s so big!) I don’t know enough people to cover all the possibilities. So, like I said, step up and make yourself known, let’s make the following table a complete guide to who knows what in the Kataloniverse™.
I’d like to make a special callout to the following Katalon Developers - what are YOUR specialist areas? Come on guys, step up please!
Let me know in the thread if you are a specialist and in what area your expertise lies[1]. Your “read time” will be checked before your name is added to the list.
“Where’s all this leading, Russ?”
A pinned TIPS article at which point this thread will be closed (and possibly deleted).
“But I don’t want my name in this list!”
Get over yourself. If I already added you, you’ve made the grade. Enjoy!
[1] Off topic and bogus suggestions will be deleted without explanation.
I’ve been a bit quiet on here recently, a thing called ‘work’ keeps getting in the way , although I do check everyday to see if there’s anything I can quickly help with.
However, I am rather flattered to be considered a ‘specialist’
@Mark_Gibson that’s fine, i am a ‘victim of the agenda’ too … but when i need a de-coupling from my daily work i am taking a lookaround here.
LE: @Russ_Thomas you can list me also in a generic section ‘debugging/crashing apps’ or similar.
I have good imagination on how to break stuff (and potentialy fix them)
Thanks Marek. I didn’t intend to leave you out - I couldn’t recall where your best advice belonged and was intending to lookup your most recent answers but got tired and sleep won the fight
Yes Mate. I had you down for “headless” too - slipped my mind.
I wish Discourse had a @EveryoneElse thing to target everyone already mentioned in the thread.
What about other areas? I just threw those listed together… Am I missing anything key? Important? Relevant? I guess identifying holes is as good as identifying individuals…
I wouldnt consider myself a specialist but Im pretty familiar with Katalon, I do a lot of Selenium stuff so if anyone has questions, I can offer my support just dm me like most people do
Hey Manny. You’ve certainly provided good answers; I’ve seen them. I’ve learned from them. Your “read time” is on the low side but as long as you’re checking your notifications regularly, I’m game.
@Russ_Thomas you may add also an ‘linux related’ subject … here i can provide also good advices … and i hope one day katalon will be widely supported on this platform (for the moment seems to be limited to certain most popular distributions)
also, i have certain experience with API/ webservice testing (mostly RESTfull)
LE: DB testing may be also an relevant subject. here i have some knowledge on sql (mysql and sqlite mostly) and some NoSql (mongodb, elasticsearch) altough my grandson @Mihai_Augustin_Sarat is by far better prepared on this matter (he is just lazzy, visiting this forum from time to time)
