I am getting an error message: Unable to start application on this device: Appium directory is invalid: Cannot find appium executable. When i try to start a new recording. I am able to run devices using Andriod SDK Manager, as well as run appium server. However Katalon seems to have trouble starting the Appium.exe. Please advise.

Hey Chris,
I am having the same problem where my appium executable file it not being recognized with the following path:
/Users/rkarim1/.nvm/versions/node/v10.12.0/lib/node_modules/appium/build/lib
Can you please help I can not run my existing script at all.

As we can see in the log, by default katalon libraries are using remote web driver with Appium. I can't find how to setup the webdriver in this script using katalon libraries. With pure selenium is very easy :D

The detailed user documentation (docs.katalon.com) definitely helps you go through quickly from simple to advanced features.Most open source projects are hard to setup and deploy because they are contributed by many different developers and providers who submit their work into a central place, i.e., GitHub. You may have to build everything using the submitted source code. But even if frameworks are packaged into a ready-to-use stuff like Selenium and Appium, you still have to go through technical guidelines for their API and integrate them into with an IDE and a preferred programming language. Below are high-level steps required by Selenium, Appium and Katalon Studio to setup and run.Test management and scripting language supportManagement of test artifacts:

I used katalon studio for 3 years and its so amazing.I'm a selenium basic user to make an automate testing, one day i think traditional selenium so hard to implement and unstable when selenium was upgraded.When i meet katalon studio,its like bring me from the dark to light. I can explore my skill more,be more creative and think to create something new. Katalon support all my idea to develop complex automatic testing. Katalon make my vision more clearly about automated testing and how to implement with special project.it because every project has different needs when decided to build automated testing.

1- you can not open more than one project at a time
2- it's very heavy, it consumes a lot of resources. I think it could be improved in terms of RAM and CPU management.
3- katalon analytics needs more improvement, there are some issues in the UI.
4- the logging motor can be better, right now is very unusual if you run multiple test suites at a time with suite collection and try to watch the logs for each and every test suite, you get lost and it's hard to know even when it finished executing.
5- The Katalon Studio UI (at least mac version) it's complicated to use when you create a Request, it's hard to define the variables and params since the components used are very archaic, some time you think you save (according to the common behavior in most of the tool) but you actually dont and lost all changes. That can be improved.
6- The way Katalon manage the project files etc. it's very complicated to deal with those non-sense files (for end user) and the repos, it generates a lot of conflicts everytime.

I am Facing problem with running my katalon testcases in the device farm i have followed the documentation given by aws for running katalon test cases on device farm but whenever i run my testcases my testcases are not being runned
