an Excellent Automation Testing Solution for Everyone

It helped me a lot by saving me a lot of time because I do some tasks automation on it and I run some tests to see what's working and what's not.
It's free and easy to use and it's perfect for everyone especially for a small business like me who don't need to have programming skills to runs some web and API tests and do Web Automation.
It's an amazing tool and I hope the Katalon Studio team will keep improving it in the future.
Pros
I like it because It's % Free tool and It's very easy to use with an excellent user interface.
It helped me to test some Automation tasks using an Excel spreadsheet and I find it very useful especially the record option because I don't need to code anything I just need to click record and start to do my task from A to Z and after this, I will just put everything into a Loop and all my tasks are fully Automated.
It's very easy to use and I saved a lot of time using it because I don't have much experience as a programmer and to get someone to program an Automation tool for your business is very expensive but, with the Help of Katalon Studio now I have the Knowledge to Automate any simple task I have.
I run some tests on multi browsers and It's very easy to create cross-browser testing and It allows me to do multi API and Web service testing too.
I love when I get real-time reports about the performance of my test so, I can fix the bug without checking everything.
I like the pre-installed templates because for someone with a little knowledge of coding I can just use Katalon templates and they get the work done without any problem.
They have an amazing support team and a lot of blog posts and question answered on their Community website also, I like when they send me a lot of useful tips and tricks by Email weekly and there's a lot of YouTube Videos about this tool and I learned a lot from it too.
Cons
They can add more features and integrate with other testing and automation tools because this will help in saving a lot of time.
They can improve their Recorder tool and they can add more Browsers too.

I was new to my company and I was on a new project. The tool selected by someone else wasn't going to be a fit (Cypress) we need a tool that could do proper E2E testing not a Unit test tool like Cypress. Katalon allowed me to catch up and to get the automation back on track quickly. I found it very easy to use as it was much like the commercial tools I have used for the last 18 years
Pros
Ease of Use
Similar to the commercial tools I have used
Lots of options to create custom code
Cons
Object Recognition is a bit clumsy. It needs a spy that will give relative XPath for objects. Currently it gives a full Xpath which is unreliable.
