Is there a way to write some code to add programmatically (java/groovy) test suites to the testsuites root folder and test cases to the test cases root folder? Thanks in advance

Loosely speaking, yes. Groovy (and Java) can manipulate the file system in any way you wish. Copying/moving files around, included. Is there a built in method to do that? No. You’d need to write a custom Keyword to do it.

thanks for your prompt reply. Do you have any knowledge of which classes/packages to use for it? to obtain something like: TestSuiteRootDir.addNewTestSuite(“my new TS”); without using dialog or graphic interface classes… Thanks again, Donato

You’re very likely to want java.File.io and some of its friends: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/File.html

thanks again. Am I not supposed to use Katalon packages (“com.kms.katalon…”) to create TestSuites and TestCases instances??? Do I have to create folders with ordinary File.IO classes only?.. What about the .groovy files and the .ts / .tc files created by using the GUI? Thanks, Donato

I was answering your original question as best I could understand it. I don’t know if the katalon APIs provide what you need.

Thanks to you all for the useful suggestion!

Hi there
@Donato_Angelo_Di_Cro

Katalon Studio does not provide you with these capabilities. But Katalon Platform does. It’s a set of APIs we are building to extend Katalon Studio’s existing capabilities. These extensions include the ability to create/modify Test Case and Test Suite. Please read the following.

How to include the response of a request in the test report?
