Hi Mithun, This is posted as an answer, but seems more like question. Currently Katalon is only for Native applications and requires the user to load the apk of the native app to be tested. I am responding because I am facing a similar issue and I was thinking if I could download the chrome apk on my phone and pretend I am testing the Chrome app, then maybe I would be able to create a test for a responsive web app using chrome. When I downloaded the APK, I was unable to launch it. When I googled how to access the natively installed chrome APK it said I needed root, which I do not have. Thanks, Maehtt C ---

You can use your web application test scripts and then select the appropriate device for mobile web automation ---

That’s a good question. I’m a newbie but i think that should be posible. Chromedriver for selenium can do it so i guess it shoud be possible with some custom configuration. any expeter could give as an answer? ---
