For anyone running long-haul tests or large Test Suites, the Test Execution Logs should not be used in Tree View mode because it uses far too much memory and slows down the runtime to the point it may even crash .
See these tips and analyses from @kazurayam
I have published a demo project at GitHub.
Problem to solve
Katalon Studio’s “Log Viewer” slows down your test execution significantly. Are you aware of this fact?
Maybe not. So I will report my analysis here. I can explain how to make it better.
Measurement result
Let me go straight to the point. The following table shows the result I measured how long a Test Suite took to finish running. I used a single Test Suite while I applied several variation of the “Log Viewer” setups.
As the foll…
Yes. Therefore ‘tree view’ is memory-hungry. Users should prefer the ‘log view’ to ‘tree view’ for faster processing.
Users should not try to switch from the ‘log view’ to the ‘tree view’, as it will take long time to “load logs” from the execution0.log file. If a execution0.log files has 3 megabytes size, ‘loading logs’ takes 60 seconds.
