Hello, I recently ran into the same issue when attempting to assign a specific profile to a Test Collection in version 6.3.3. This is the same error condition that was mentioned in 5.4. Has there been any updates on how we can set the execution policy for Test Collections? ---

How to provide values to variables in Katalon Test Case scripts at runtime? — it is a recurring problem. Katalon Team proposed and implemented a way to override GlobalVariables by specifying which Execution Profile to use for a Test Suites run. Howerver, as @pgonzalez and others pointed out, you can not override Exeution Profile for a TestSuiteCollection. I would propose that another method is possible. If you are willing to develop fair amount of Groovy code yourself, you can give values from some `*.properties` file to test case variables. Just to let you think of alternatives, see the following old post of mine at 2018: > [@Katalon.properties file and JVM System Property katalon.user.home](http://forum.katalon.com/t/katalon-properties-file-and-jvm-system-property-katalon-user-home/9943): > > Problems to solve Let me assume, I have a single Web Application in multiple environments: the development, the staging, the production-blue, the production-green and more. These environments have 99% same contents and features except the following differences: Hostname — e.g. [demoaut-mimic.kazurayam.com](http://demoaut-mimic.kazurayam.com/) for development, [demoaut.katalon.com](http://demoaut.katalon.com/) for production Username/Password — e.g. kazurayam/foobar for development, John Doe/ThisIsNotAPassword for production.
