Anuradha.Kapoor Kapoor - PeerSpot reviewer
Functional automation features and the recording functionality saves time but the performance and script execution is slow
I would like to see improvements in how Katalon Studio works with iOS applications, especially with React Native applications. The speed is very slow. It takes time. Katalon Studio also takes my laptop memory, and execution becomes slow for the script. There are parallel execution options. I'm sure their online cloud version must be very fast, but as a service-based company, we are under NDA with our clients and can't run their code on our servers. I would like to see iOS improve and see a more capable recording feature. Katalon Studio has released an AI version, and I have a demo scheduled to see the new features.
Ashu Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-use tool that saves time and functions within a limited budget
The solution's reporting system should be clearer and easier to understand for a layperson. I and some other experts may be able to understand the solution's reporting system, but a layperson won't understand it. For a layperson, the solution should be easy to use. Price-wise, TestProject is an expensive product. The product's current price should be lowered to attract potential customers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We are now performing automated testing in 15 minutes, which were previously taking a long time when doing it manually."
"It is good with iOS and Android."
"The ability to build all libraries with codes and use them in many situations has been most valuable."
"Our clients have requested by all types of testing, including mobile, desktop, and API testing and all of those are covered by Katalon. I find that very valuable, very complete."
"I like the feature where you can define a model that represents your website and then reuse the components from the model. It makes creating more test cases easy."
"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"The automation and AI are very good."
"The script-less part of it was good for novice users."
"Since implementing this solution, our code management has been reduced by 40% to 60%."
"Ability to carry out automatic testing without having coding knowledge."
"The ease of web and mobile functional testing is pretty easy on TestProject."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"It would be helpful to have an automatic save feature."
"It should be faster while executing, and there are some defects, like choosing the new device with the test case."
"Katalon doesn't support testing of hybrid applications. It's a limitation."
"There is not much support offered for the free version, which is something that could be improved."
"There could potentially be more reporting within the solution. We need more issue reports, for example."
"What it lacks is the Selenium Grid capabilities."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"I and some other experts may be able to understand the solution's reporting system, but a layperson won't understand it."
"Difficult trying to configure on more than one browser."
"In an upcoming release, there should be a SaaS offering available."
"We'd like to see a direct cloud from TestProject instead of some other third party."
"The support is a weak point since they discontinued the tool."
"TestProject needs better support for integration with other products to provide a better overall solution for test planning and test data management."
