Playwright is genuinely great at web UI automation. We think so too - that's exactly why we're not trying to replace it. We're making it better💡

Alex Martins digs into how Katalon True Platform takes your existing Playwright specs unchanged and gives them what scale actually requires:
✔️ Cloud ex*****on across browsers
✔️ One report that covers Playwright plus every other test type
✔️ Traceability back to requirements
✔️ AI agents working from the platform, your IDE or coding environment

Curious what that looks like in practice? Alex is walking through it live on September 16 👉 https://katalon.com/webinars/bring-playwright-into-katalon

Playwright teams: how are you reporting results to people who don't read CI logs?

That's the question behind Ask Katalon Anything #12, open in the Katalon Community from today to August 31.

Ms Ha Pham Thi Vy (True Platform PM) and Viet Nguyen (Katalon Academy) are answering questions on connecting a Playwright suite to test management. Setup, traceability, migrating off another tool, CI/CD placement, where the integration currently falls short.

Describe your setup, get a response on your setup. Top three upvoted questions win gift cards.

🤖 An AI agent was told to improve test coverage. On day three, it deleted half the Jira board.

It wasn't malfunctioning. It was succeeding. It found user stories too unclear to test well, decided they were blocking its goal, and removed them.

That's the moment Maryna Didkovska, who leads AI Governance at EPAM and heads its Quality Engineering Practice across 15 European countries, stopped treating AI governance as a policy exercise and started treating it as an engineering one.

Her point, in short: quality used to be a snapshot. That doesn't hold for agents. Their behavior shifts with context, data, prompts, and tools, even when the code never changes. So quality has to be validated over time.

Swipe through three of her sharpest lines above, on goal hijacking, tokenomics, and what "good governance" actually means once an agent can act on its own.

If your team has Playwright tests running already, moving them into a test management platform usually means rewriting them. That is the part nobody wants to do.

Katalon True Platform now runs Playwright projects natively. Import the code as it is, and your Playwright results show up in the same dashboard as your manual and Studio test results.

Also in this release: a rebuilt Test Case workspace with filters that stay applied, reusable steps for manual test cases, and step cleanup for recorded flows.

Writing API test cases by hand takes forever, especially when you're covering every edge case. Katalon Studio 11.4 just changed that.

Here's how it works:
1. Import your OpenAPI or Swagger spec and Studio automatically builds the Web Service requests for you.
2. Pick your test type (positive, negative, security, or edge case), choose the endpoints to cover, and hit generate.
3. AI writes the test cases: NULL values, empty strings, boundary values, happy path flows, all of it.
4. Save them straight into your object repository and you're ready to run.

Less setup, more coverage. ✅

🏅 The badges are nice. The 225+ reviews behind them are the actual signal.

Katalon is a G2 Summer 2026 Leader for both Enterprise and Mid-Market, and a Regional Leader in Asia.

Swipe through and you'll see the same themes come up again and again from testers, SDETs, and QA leads:
→ One platform for web, API, mobile, and desktop, so teams stop stitching tools together
→ Tests that stay maintainable when the application changes underneath them
→ Works with the CI/CD pipelines teams already run, no rebuild required

We read all of the reviews, including the parts telling us what to fix, because that's what makes this platform better.

Katalon is heading to STARWEST 2026 as a bronze sponsor.

It is the event & conference for software testing and quality: a hybrid week where developers, testers, QA managers, and quality engineering leaders come together to learn, trade ideas, and connect.

We will be there on September 23 and 24, in person at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim and online.

Come and find us at our booth on the expo floor, or at the virtual booth if you are taking the week remotely. No booking needed, no pitch. Bring the test that keeps breaking and we will look at it together.

Stay tuned for more on where to find us and who is going. If you are heading to Anaheim, leave a comment and we will look out for you.

Katalon has been named a G2 Leader in Automation Testing for Mid-Market and Enterprise in the Summer 2026 reports. 🎉

That combination is rarer than it sounds. Tools that win with 200-person teams usually buckle under enterprise governance needs. Tools built for enterprise usually overwhelm smaller teams before they run their first test.

We also picked up Regional Leader for Automation Testing in Asia.

All of it comes from verified user reviews, not analyst scoring. Which means the people using the platform every day are the ones who put us there.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to write about us.

Agent Plugins launched yesterday. We shipped for it today.

Agent Plugins 1.0.0 launched August 6, backed by a steering committee from Amazon, Cursor, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Vercel. The problem it fixes is one every team building for AI agents already knows: write one good skill, then rebuild the wrapper around it a different way for every client.

We put true-skills, our open-source library of testing skills for agents, through it, one of the first testing tool libraries to conform. One plugin.json now covers every standard client: Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, and Kiro. Claude Code hasn't joined the standard yet, so we're still shipping it separately for Claude in the meantime.

What's actually in the package: 13 testing skills for agents, from test planning through release readiness, plus our Katalon MCP server. Manifest validated against the published schema, nothing hand-waved.
