I have a requirement to validate images in a PDF in my Katalon tests. Is there a way to do this without using TestOps? Happy to store base images in project somewhere instead (maybe Data Files). The alternative would be to use SikuliX, but because Katalon is still using the ancient JNA version 4, I’d have to update the JNA jars in the Katalon installation, which i don’t feel comfortable with. ---
