Official FAQ
- What is Katalon True Platform?
- Katalon True Platform brings test management, test automation, test execution and production insights together in one place. TestOps manages cases, runs and release evidence, Studio authors web, mobile, API and desktop tests, TestCloud runs them in parallel on real browsers and devices, and TrueTest shows how real users move through your product.
- Can I keep my existing Selenium, Appium or Playwright tests?
- Yes. Katalon Studio is built on top of Selenium and Appium, so existing scripts keep working, and TestOps ingests Playwright results and maps them to the matching test cases for reporting and AI analysis. You keep the framework your team already knows.
- What can I test with Katalon?
- Web, mobile, API and desktop applications, from one platform, with no-code, low-code, full-code and AI-assisted authoring in the same project.
- How does Katalon AI help, and can we control it?
- Katalon AI generates test cases from requirements, heals locators when the interface changes, explains failures in plain language, and runs multi-step work from your coding agent over MCP. Authorized admins can enable or disable AI features, and supported AI requests can be routed through organization-provided provider keys.
- Is there a free trial?
- Yes. You can start free with no credit card, and run your first suite the same day.
- How does pricing work?
- Plans differ by product and by how much execution your team needs, and TestCloud sessions come as an allotment with add-ons available. The Katalon pricing page always carries the current structure.
