Hello, Katalon users and software testing professionals! Today, we’re going to delve into a common issue that some of our users have encountered with the Katalon Web Recorder. This blog post is inspired by a real-life scenario shared by a user on our Katalon Community forum.
The Issue
A user recently reported an issue where the Katalon Web Recorder was not running the predetermined steps. Despite creating a new project and reinstalling the software, the problem persisted. The user was trying to automate a simple task: visiting a website and performing a search.
Possible Causes and Solutions
1. Check for Error Windows
One of the first things to check when encountering this issue is whether any error windows pop up after clicking 'Run’. If there are no error messages and the log viewer is blank, it could indicate a different problem.
2. Verify the Global Variable Format
Another user suggested checking the format of the Global Variable, URL. It’s important to ensure that the URL is correctly formatted.
3. Update the Chrome WebDriver
It was also suggested that updating the Chrome WebDriver could resolve the issue. An outdated WebDriver could affect system performance during the recording scenario.
