If you want to get the return value if the keyword fails, please add FailureHandling.OPTIONAL to the method call, like this:

verifyElementExist(findTestObject(“MobileHomePageObjects/android.widget.TextView0 - HSE Observation”, FailureHandling.OPTIONAL), 6) == true

groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: static com.kms.katalon.core.testobject.ObjectRepository.findTestObject() is applicable for argument types: (java.lang.String, com.kms.katalon.core.model.FailureHandling) values: [login/permission_allow_button, OPTIONAL]

FailureHandling.OPTIONAL in the wrong position, its after the timeout
e.g
verifyElementExist(findTestObject(“MobileHomePageObjects/android.widget.TextView0 - HSE Observation”), 6, FailureHandling.OPTIONAL) == true
