Very slow test execution in Katalon Studio 8.6.5

kirankukreja51 · July 25, 2023, 5:29pm

Hi
I am experiencing much slowness in Katalon Studio while working on a basic web project. The initialization and launching of browser take a lot of time. My tests are not very complex or large. While creating a simple web UI test, it takes too long to run. What could be the possible reason? Is there any way to speed up the execution?

A few things you can try…

Download another copy of KS and run the same project. Still slow?
Target a different browser. Still slow?

Lastly,

Which OS?

Post your logs. Someone might spot something.

If you are on Mac, chip is Intel or M1&M2?
