Hi all,

Katalon Studio v5.5 (Beta) is now available for trial! Feel free to experience the tool and provide your feedback.

Highlights of the v5.5 (beta):
- **Improve Web Recorder: **The new Web Recorder will have a similar interface to Test Case View. It also equipped with the ability to execute recorded steps on the fly.
- Share Custom Keywords: If you want to share your custom keywords within your team or to the community, Katalon Studio 5.5 introduces Import/Export Keywords to help you quickly grab your favorite custom keywords from outside resources or share your own.
- **Extend Web Service’s Object: **Enhancement within the Web Service object’s view to help you execute your verification snippets on the fly.

Issues Fixed:

  • Failed status is not generated for ‘verifyElementInViewport’ keyword.
  • ‘Unable to resolve class internal. GlobalVariable’ error when executing tests using console mode execution.
  • Correct hotkeys display for Object Spy in case users change it.
  • Missing email reports when executing a Test Suite Collection in parallel mode.
  • Generated reports can’t be deleted after users view them.

Thanks for always supporting Katalon. Your comments and contribution are all welcome!

Cheers,
Katalon Team.

Which InternetExplorerDriver release was built into 5.5 Beta? We’re desperately waiting for 3.13 as it hopefully fixes some unicode issues with non-US keyboard input we face right now.

You can replace IEDriver using this approach: https://docs.katalon.com/display/KD/Update+or+Replace+Web+Browser+Drivers+and+Selenium

Hi, could you please fix directory name inside Linux x64 distro? It brakes container build process.
