Variable Binding not working with Japanese Katakana variable input

[s.qureshi]

Hey, I imported the data from excel file in katakana Test Data. but the testcase is taking the default value (used in test case) only, and not picking up the newly created katakana column

Are you running your testcase in a suite or standalone?
Note that, with your settings, you set the binding at the test suite level.
Binding at the testcase level I think it is a paid (enterprise) feature.

Possibly you should read the following docs again:

https://docs.katalon.com/docs/create-tests/data-driven-testing/data-driven-testing-with-katalon-studio#data-driven-testing-methods

Katalon Studio supports the following data-driven testing methods:

• In a test case: From version 8.3.0, you can perform data-driven testing in a test case independently from the test suite. See Data-driven testing at the test case level.
• In a test suite: You can perform data-driven testing in a test suite. See Data-driven testing in a test suite.
• In a dynamic test suite: Katalon Studio supports data-driven testing in a dynamic test suite. See Data-driven testing in a dynamic test suite.

Alternatively, you can also perform data-driven testing with Groovy using the findTestData method. To learn about this method, you can refer to our API documentation: TestData.

Learn in practice with our free Katalon Academy course: ​ Katalon Studio: How to Apply Data-Driven Testing.

This fact is described at
https://docs.katalon.com/docs/create-tests/data-driven-testing/data-driven-testing-at-test-case-level

Requirements

• An active Katalon Studio Enterprise (KSE) license.

I believe that the type of character (Katakana) is not sigfinicant for your issue at all.

Test Suite

@s.qureshi

I noticed you mixed 2 spellings “KataKata” and “Katakana”.

That confuses KS.

You know, “AlphaNumeric” and “Alphanumeric” are different 2 names.

[s.qureshi]

I corrected the “K”, but it keeps putting the default value of KataKana “” in the Test Suite and Test Case. It should be putting the test data of KataKana in the Test Suite. I am using the trial Enterprise Version.

let me try findTestData Goovy method

@kazurayam

data-driven testing with Groovy using the findTestData method

can you help me with this data-driven testing with Groovy using the findTestData method

[s.qureshi]

Issue solved first but then re-appeared. I changed the default value to Global Variable = FindTestData

Still not working @kazurayam @bionel

You should have a look at the guideline:

[TIP] How To Help Us Help You!

My test is BROKEN! NOTHING WORKS! HELP ME! Relax. We get it. We really do. There are some pretty smart and clever people on this forum, but you must realize, they are not magicians or wizards or gods. They cannot see your code, they can’t see your errors and they don’t even know what your AUT is meant to do even though it might seem perfectly obvious to you. So please relax and follow the advice below, before you start writing your post. The advice below will tell you the exact information …

You should provide enough information so that others can reproduce your case on their side. Otherwise others would not be able to help you much.

@s.qureshi
Please upload your excel data file so we can try to reproduce the issue on our side.
I don’t see any obvious reason why this is not working for you.
