Hello,

I’m currently attempting to execute a native mobile test suite using Katalon Test Cloud, and I’m encountering an issue. Could anyone provide assistance on how to properly use Katalon Test Cloud for a native mobile app, along with the prerequisites needed to achieve this successfully?

Thank you!

Hi,

We have the instruction of using Katalon TestCloud with native mobile app: Run mobile native application tests on TestCloud | Katalon Docs and you can also try some use cases: https://docs.katalon.com/docs/katalon-platform/execute/test-execution-with-testcloud/use-cases/upload-files-for-native-mobile-application.
