Hi, I am working on integrating Katalon with Gitlab CI but have failed many times. I have installed gitlab-runner directly on Windows 10 instead of docker. I followed the instruction from the official doc to setup configuration file as follows:

run_katalon_test_suite:
  tags:
    - shell
  script:
    - katalon -noSplash  -runMode=console -consoleLog -projectPath=
      "C:/Users/<user_name>/Katalon Studio/<project_name>" -retry=0
      -testSuitePath="Test Suites/Sample Test Suite" -executionProfile=
      "login as Nick Huang" -browserType="Chrome (headless)"

However, I got **ERROR: Job failed: exit status 2 **after running pipeline:

My test case is a simple login test with two steps:

WebUI.openBrowser('')
WebUI.authenticate('https://url-for-authentication', 
                                 GlobalVariable.username, 
                                 GlobalVariable.password, 5)
WebUI.navigateToUrl('https://url-to-home-page')

Thanks in advance:)

You have this now:

katalon -noSplash  -runMode=console -consoleLog -projectPath=....

You should not specify ‘-consoleLog’ if you run katalon under the control of CI server. Change this to:

katalon -noSplash  -runMode=console -projectPath=....

Then you will find more verbose messages logged by CI sever. The messages will tell why you got exit status 2; for example WebUI.authenticate() failed etc.

(The official doc is explaining “Console mode execution” in general; not necessarily 100% precise for running it under CI server)
