When running console mode from a Windows command prompt, Katalon opens a new command window that shows the test runner output. Unfortunately in VSTS/TFS, the output from the new windows is not displayed in the VSTS/TFS console. Can you update the command line process so that it runs in the main console window, or provide a way to log the output to a file?
