1. Try Partial Title or Regex Matching

Katalon’s Windows (and WebUI) switch commands accept partial titles or regex patterns:

Windows.switchToWindowTitle('CRM Manager Login View') // Partial match
// Or, for advanced matching (Katalon 7.5.5+), specify a matching strategy:
Windows.switchToWindowTitle(windowTitle, com.kms.katalon.core.windows.constants.StringMatchingStrategy.CONTAINS)

2. Increase Timeout for Window Detection

Sometimes the automation executes too quickly. Set a longer timeout right before switching:

import com.kms.katalon.core.windows.keyword.helper.WindowsActionSettings
WindowsActionSettings.DF_WAIT_ACTION_TIMEOUT_IN_MILLIS = 180000  // Wait up to 180 seconds
Windows.switchToWindowTitle(windowTitle)

3. Inspect Available Window Titles Programmatically

List all open window titles before switching to verify what’s actually available:

List<String> windowTitles = Windows.getOpenedWindowTitles()
KeywordUtil.logInfo('Available window titles: ' + windowTitles)

4. Use Window Index as a Fallback

If the title is not reliable, switch by index:

Windows.switchToWindowIndex(1) // Switch to second window opened

Recommendations

  • Trim and sanitize your window title string for hidden characters.
  • Use partial match or regular expressions if the title is dynamic.
  • Print/log all available window titles before switching to identify discrepancies.
  • Increase the timeout and add waits until the desired window appears.
  • If the issue persists, verify the exact automation API (WebUI vs. Windows) and whether you may be switching between browser tabs or actual desktop windows.

To me, the screenshot you provided looks to be a window of Java Applet; not an ordinary HTML-based web page. If it is a Java Applet, Katalon Studio would not be able to speak to it at all.

Please make sure if the target is a HTML-based web page. Show us the HTML source code (the <html><head><title>...</title></head> part at least), please.
