Katalon TestCloud: Live Interaction with Mobile Devices

What’s New

TestCloud now allows testers to interactively control mobile devices during automated test execution.

Instead of waiting for a run to complete and reviewing the results afterward, you can step in, troubleshoot, and adjust behavior in real time while the session is still active.

Why This Matters

Mobile testing often involves unpredictable UI behaviors, device prompts, or environment-specific differences.

Live interaction enables testers to respond immediately, understand what’s happening on the device, and prevent test failures from becoming slow feedback loops.

Key Benefits

• Debug in real time while tests are running
• Manually handle unexpected UI events such as alerts or permissions
• Seamlessly resume the automated script after intervention
• Shorten investigation time and accelerate issue resolution for mobile test failures
