The test is not running when using the latest Katalon docker images (versions: 9.7.0, 9.7.1)

The test is not running when using the latest Katalon docker images (versions: 9.7.0, 9.7.1). While trying to run the test in Jenkins, the test is shown as passed and there are no errors but it doesn’t seem to be really running. As per the logs, the browser just gets opened, maximized (as per the code in @BeforeTestCase in the test listener), and then closed (as per the code in @AfreTestCase in the test listener). But the code in the test itself is not executed and there are no reports in the artifacts (see in “After” in the screenshots) The very same test is executed w/o any problem while using docker for Katalon Version: 8.5.2 (see “Before” in the screenshots) .

There is nothing special about the test itself (I created it just to demonstrate this issue : it just goes to https://google.com and set a delay for 10 seconds)

Hi there, :wave:

You have got this file.

The execution0.log file contains ALL message out of your test. So that is the only place you may find a clue. You should look into this file and try to find any information why your test did not run as you expected.

@kazurayam

That was the 1st place I look into. There is no clue there either.

After End listener action : sampleBeforeTestCase

In case of Katalon Version: 8.5.2 (see “Before” in the screenshots), the script got executed

BUT

in case of Katalon Version: 9.7.1 (see “After” in the screenshots"), Start listener action : sampleAfterTestCase started:

I have never seen such a case reported in this Katalon User forum previously.

I have no more idea.

Are you a paying Katalon customer?
If so, you should raise an official support request.
