Here is my run command:  
katalonc -runMode=console -projectPath=“D:/project/myproject/myproject.prj” -retry=0 -testSuitePath=“Test Suites/ThuNghiem/LuongMoi\_0868602372/TN\_Successful\_VTP\_LuongMoi\_2372” -executionProfile=“default” -browserType=“Android” -remoteWebDriverType=“Appium” -deviceId=“R58M7285TMY” -reportFolder=TS\_NVVTPay -apiKey=myapiKey

But I want to run each testcase in testsuite, but I can’t find the key for running each testcase by commandline  
Can you support us to run the commandline with each testcase?

> @nathaniel.s.thompson Thanks for your suggestion ! I was about to create a Github issue for ease of tracking but I see you’ve already done so. We will consider it in our future releases, and will let you know when there’s more information.

Let me assume you have 3 test cases TC1, TC2, TC3 and you want to execute these 3 from command line. You can create 3 Test Suites TS1, TS2, TS3 each wraps TC1, TC2, TC3 respectively. When you execute TS3 from command line, effectively you can execute TC3. Silly, but it works.

Or you can use [`WebUI.callTestCase()`](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/call-test-case.html).

You want to create a new Test Case TCX, which will do

```auto
switch(GlobalVariable.TestCaseToRun) {
    case "A":
        WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase("TC1")
        break
    case "B":
        WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase("TC2"))
        break
    case "C":
        WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase("TC3")
        break
}

```

You want a new test suite TSX, which encloses the TCX.

Then in the command line you can execute the TSX while specifying the value of GlobalVariable.TestCaseToRun by

```auto
katalonc ... -testSuitePath="TSX" -g_TestCaseToRun="C"

```

Then TC3 will be executed.

* * *

Even shorter TCX could be:

```auto
WebUI.callTestCase(findTestCase("Test Cases/" + GlobalVariable.TestCaseToRun))

```

In the command line you execute:

```auto
katalonc ... -testSuitePath="TSX" -g_TestCaseToRun="TC3"

```
