Hi, Is it possible to use a variable or global variable as the property value for a response body: JSON value check? If so, how would you need to display this? Thanks
@@RaghavPal Thanks for getting back to me, sorry for the delay in my response (I've been away). As an example, I am using the 'verification' tab to verify the following with a hardcoded value: WS.verifyElementPropertyValue(response, 'address.postcode[0]', 'DE1 3GL') How would I amend this to reflect using a variable? In the 'variable' tab I have named a value 'Postcode' and given it a default value but I can't figure out how to link the two together at the moment. Thanks
@@RaghavPal Hi, Would it be possible for you to please reply to this comment with a demonstration of how you would write a variable and/or a global variable as the property value for a response body: JSON value check? Thank you
Hi Raghav, thank you for clear crispy and best explanation. Question: what is the difference between postman and katalon. Which one is having more advantage and more market share. Thanks in advance
Hi Vaseem, Postman is for API, Katalon can handle web, api, mobile and desktop. Postman can be used for free although it has paid accounts as well. Katalon's free ver is very limited and will have to go for licence
Hello Raghav, Thank you for all the videos you provide us regarding testing automation!! I have a problem with automating my API project. I need a way to send API with OAuth2.0. For example, i want to send a POST call with Bearer {{token}} in the Request Header. I previously generated via a Login call the Token.. and stored it as a Global Variable... From what i noticed, Katalon cannot mention variables in request header (or at least I couldn't make it work)... and neither does it support OAuth2.0 ... Thank you for all your work and any kind of information is very appreciated!
Hi Viorel, I am not sure if you have already tried this forum.katalon.com/t/how-to-add-oauth-2-0-authorization-header/8850 There are some workarounds mentioned.
@@RaghavPal : I have included the authorization but when i running the suite the token is not getting updated. Is there a way to store it in a variable and the use in in headers for individual test cases

Hi sir, I am developing an automation test on katalon in which the user will click on a button present on my site and then the automation test will run on the katalon installed on my server using Jenkins, the problem is I want the user to enter the captcha or OTP. Can I use API to send that captcha image to that user by sending a popup that will contain that captcha with an input element and when the user will submit captcha my catalog project will submit the form after receiving it. Please tell me which technology I should use how it could work. The user won't have selenium installed on its pc. He will interact on the site and the site will trigger the katalon script which will contain user id of that particular user.
Hi Tanmai, I have not tried, but here are some links that suggest you can do it with docker www.katalon.com/technologies/ forum.katalon.com/t/can-katalon-work-with-travis-ci/12345
Hi sir, in postman I'm getting access token easily. But kalaton if I give correct information to the authorization page, I am not getting the access token Here. How to tackle.
Hi Pratheep, I will have to see your request and setup, Also check if any of the videos in this playlist helps you - ua-cam.com/play/PLhW3qG5bs-L-yy1HtdxKcp-blmG5qeWgg.html
Hi Raghav, Is it necessary to include the Object Repository feature in Katalon for individual test cases and then include them in the TestCase Section? I have written a groovy script in the keyword section for Auth request and it is working fine.
Okay, you just need to extract the number using JSON Path or Xpath and then compare it as per your needs, You can take help from the API Chaining video to see how to extract
Hi Raghav, thanks for the tutorial that helps me to start learning the automation test. I have a question about the error "com.kms.katalon.core.exception.StepFailedException: Unable to verify element property value ". the locator and value in a verify step "WS.verifyElementPropertyValue(response, 'status', '0000')" are identified from jsonpath. May I have your help to know what the root cause to get this error?
Hi Maggie, I believe you will need to add the json path of the node you need to verify. In the response of the api, you can click on the value and press Ctrl+K (Command+K for mac). This will generate a verification snippet in the verifications tab and from there you can copy the json path
Hi Raghav, Thanks for the video. I am an API Tester trying to automate my API's. In this video it is mentioned about no Authorization. But in my API i am using Authorization using Bearer token. Can you please help me with this topic
Hi Shanthi, there is the section (tab) where you can add your authorization. I will plan to add a video, for now can take help from katalon documentation.
@@RaghavPal : I am using authorization Bearer token and storing them in a variable access_token. This token value changes on TST and STG. So i don't need to run the authorization request each time. I need help automating it.
Hi Raghav, I am very much confused in API testing means from where should I start learning ?? Do you have a complete playlist of api testing list coz on checking your playlist I didn't find any complete playlist. So please advise me and also which api tool is best katalaon or soup UI??

Hello again Sir, may you always have a good day. Do you mind if I'm asking some questions ? 1. I'm using Katalon version 7.52 and while following your steps I noticed that my verification log display is not like yours. It's very messy and there were no [START] - [INFO] - [PASSED/FAILED] - [END] in every verification steps. It's hard to read. Is there anything wrong with my Katalon setup and how could I make my log look like yours? Here's my screenshot for my verification log display imgur.com/a/CFqhv7i 2.In my object repository , If a verification that was placed on the top of others verification is Failed, then the test will be stopped and all the rest of the verifications won't be checked. Is there anything I should do to make all the verifications checked even there's a failed one? I've tried changing the setting in the Project to " continue on failure" but nothing happens. I apologize if I'm asking too much. Thank you in advance for your time. Have a blessed day.
Hi, I know there are some changes with Katalon Studio latest version and I am planning to create new tutorials. For now you can check with katalon documentation For test stopping on failure you can set Failure Handling. docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/failure-handling.html

Hi Shanti, it is a defined structure for easy maintenance, If what you are doing working for you and you can maintain it, its okay
@@RaghavPal It is not working for me since each time I write a TC, it is asking for test object and directing to Object Repository

okay
Halo Raghav, why in my katalon isn't show the verification log?
i'm already follow ur instruction.

It can be due to change of version.. hope you are using trial or licensed version
