Create and manage a Project

This guide explains how to create, update, and oversee projects in your organization using Katalon TestOps.

Requirements

Only Account Admins can create projects. After creation, the assigned Project Admins can manage project settings and invite users who already belong to the organization.

Create a Project​

  1. Navigate to Account Settings → Org → Organization Management.
  2. Click + Create.
  3. Choose Project from the dropdown menu.
  4. Complete the Create Project form with the following details:
    • Name: Provide a meaningful, easy-to-recognize name
    • Description (optional): Summarize the project’s goals or scope
    • Admin: Select users to assign as Project Admins
    • Parent organization: Choose the organizational unit this project belongs to
  5. Click Create to finalize the setup.

✅ Tip: Use a name that clearly identifies the product or team.
For example: “Web Automation – Q4 2025” is more informative than “Test Project A.”

Edit Project Details​

You can update a project's name or description at any time:

  1. Go to Account Settings → Org → Organization Management.
  2. Find the project you want to update.
  3. In the project detail view:
    • Click the project name to rename it
    • Click the description field to modify it
  4. Enter your changes, then click the ✅ checkmark to save. You can update a project's name or description at any time:

💡 Tip:

  • Use short, consistent naming conventions like QA Automation – Web, QA Automation – Mobile, or API Performance Tests.
  • In the description, include goals or scope, such as “End-to-end tests for web app v3.5” or “Monitors backend load testing.”

Delete a Project​

Note

Only user with Account Admin role can delete projects.

To delete a project:

  1. Go to Account Settings → Org → Organization Management.
  2. Click the > icon to expand the organization or sub-organization to view its projects.
  3. Click the Delete (trash can) icon next to the project you want to delete.
  4. In the Delete Project confirmation dialog, click Confirm to delete the project or Cancel to keep it.

Result​

  • The project is removed from the system.
  • The project list refreshes automatically without reloading the page.

Katalon records project deletion activities in audit logs, including the user who performed the action, the project, and the time of deletion.
