Hi,  
I’ve created a web testing UI and now I wanted to test it on an Android device. The test case basically opens a chrome web browser on the Android device. However at the verify element present step and scroll to element step it failed. Since my test case is testing on the web, is there a way to spy the mobile web to capture the objects?

@peckyong.teo You should be able to switch to a webview context and then find web objects. Sometimes you can use Katalon Studios build in command and sometimes you will need to manually switch to the webview context.

If you would like to inspect an android device that is connected to your machine you can follow these steps:
