Search test cases
Searching manually for test artifacts can be time-consuming. The search function in Katalon Studio helps reduce time spent on searching for the desired test artifacts, based on given criteria.
The search function is used for test artifacts such as test cases, test suites, folders, data files, .groovy files, etc.
There are three ways to use the search function in Katalon Studio: input your search criteria directly in the search bar, use the Advanced Search button or use the Query Builder function.
This article shows you how to view basic information of an object and how to use the search function in Katalon Studio.
IDs and Properties
IDs and tags can be helpful when it comes to managing large projects. You can use IDs and tags to find test artifacts in the Search function.
How to get a test artifact ID?
View test artifact properties
You cannot view the properties of a folder.
The search bar
Another way to search for test artifacts is to type in the search bar located at the top of the Test Explorer section. You can type in a specific keyword or follow this syntax: id=(Your_Test_Case_ID)
. For example:
id=(Test Cases/Common Test Cases)
All test cases associated with the Test Cases/Common Test Cases
ID are filtered and returned.

You can also access this function in Action > Advanced Search.
