Hi Katalon,
In this doc https://docs.katalon.com/docs/release-notes/katalon-studio/katalon-studio-release-notes-version-9.x
In my case: I want to use KRE in my M1 mac.
Is there any way to do that?
When will KRE have a version for Apple Silicon Chip?
I guess, you should just try running KRE on your M1 mac. It should run.
Why I guess so? See the following post by @duyluong of Katalon
I guess that Katalon Runtime Engine is built as a x86-64-based application software. On mac with Apple silicon chip, KRE run on top of a emulation layer named Rosseta 2. The Rosseta 2 provides an X86-inteface to the application. The x86-64 to Arm64 instruction translation makes the application run slow.
So KRE should run on Apple M1. However you should note that it could be slower than Katalon Studio for Arm64. Here is a performance comparison report: Katalon is slow to execute tests cases on MAC - #31 by kazurayam
hi @kazurayam , tks for your response, but I can not start KRE 9.3.0 on my M1 Mac,
…Are you running it on M1 chip? You can refer to the link in my post.
Tks!
Show the error log, please.
I guess, type of the chip (Intel or M1) is not the reason of the fault you have now.
Hi @kazurayam ,
I can execute tests with KRE based on your answer on my m1, but I need to relate them to AWS Device Farm, because for iOS 17+ AWS will use Base Host on Apple Silicon.
→ So maybe KRE will not be able to execute in the above case.

Quite likely, this is a bug. KRE seems to be no longer runnable on Apple Silicon. => @Elly_Tran
