Windows Desktop app testing on later versions after Katalon Studio 9.7.x

Starting from Katalon Studio 10.3.0, Windows Desktop app testing is available again as a beta feature. It supports spy, record, and execution of basic test cases using a new built-in driver based on the FlaUI library, replacing WinAppDriver. No separate installation is required. For more information on feature availability, limitations, and supported application types, see the Katalon Studio Release Notes: Version 10.x.

Warning

If your projects rely on Windows Desktop app testing, we recommend:

• Upgrade to Katalon Studio 10.3.0 and later to access Windows Desktop app testing beta using a FlaUI library-supported built-in driver.
• Stay on Katalon Studio version 9.x to access Windows Desktop app testing using the legacy WinAppDriver-based functionality.
