Can I convet a WebUI project to a Web Service project?

Why if i create repository on Bitbucket and i try clone by Katalon always said unable because repo is empty.

Hi There - Does please can you confirm if Katalon can run projects from file/network share locations? Currently I cannot run any project test cases unless they are locally stored.

Thank you kindly for your assistance in advance.

Indeed, where can we find this option? It will be rather useful for this.

Hi @ricardoornello

In your project folder, open the yourProject.prj file. There in the file somewhere you would see something like

<type>MOBILE</type>

change it to

<type>GENERIC</type>

and your project would become a generic project.

Cheers !

Hi, I have a slider object on web page. Can you please let me know which keyword to use for the slider object.

Hi Team,
Scenario: Run Multiple Projects at one time
I have multiple projects for different features which I thought of running at one shot.
Using Command-line, tried with an individual project.

I would be glad for all, waiting for the prompt response.

Thanks in Advance

Hey there! If you’re looking to manage a test project and want to convert your mobile project into a generic one, you may want to consider using a project management tool that can handle both types of projects. Have you considered using a CRM and project management combined tool? This type of software can often handle a wide variety of project types and can make it easier to manage and organize your work. It might be worth checking out some options to see if they fit your needs. Good luck with your project!
