Generate reports when execution stops

Last updated: July 2026

When you manually stop a test suite or test suite collection run, Katalon Studio can finish reporting for the results it already collected instead of discarding them. Two project settings control this: one generates the report files, and one uploads the report to Katalon True Platform. Both settings are cleared by default.

Requirements
  • Katalon Studio 11.4.0 or later.
  • For the upload setting, your project is connected to Katalon True Platform and Automatically upload all test reports to Katalon True Platform is selected.

Generate a report when an execution stopped​

  1. Go to Project > Settings > Report.
  2. Select Auto generate report if execution is manually stopped.
  3. Click Apply and Close.

Katalon Studio generates the report formats you selected under Automatically generate these reports after test execution, using the results collected before you stopped the run.

The report keeps the outcome of every test case that finished before you stopped the run. For the remaining test cases:

  • A test case that was running when you stopped the execution is reported as Incomplete.
  • A test case that had not started yet is reported as Not run.

Upload the report to Katalon True Platform when an execution stopped​

  1. Go to Project > Settings > Katalon True Platform.
  2. Select Enable Katalon True Platform Integration, then select Automatically upload all test reports to Katalon True Platform.
  3. Select Automatically upload the report to Katalon True Platform if execution is manually stopped.
  4. Click Apply and Close.

note

This option is a child of Automatically upload all test reports to Katalon True Platform and is only available when the parent option is selected.

The two settings work independently. Katalon Studio uploads the report even when local report generation on manual stop is not selected, and generates local reports even when the upload option is not selected.

Limitations​

  • Do not use these settings for Katalon Runtime Engine runs on CI/CD. The graceful shutdown window of most CI/CD systems is shorter than the time Katalon Studio needs to generate the report, upload it, and release the license. The CI/CD system can kill the process before those steps finish, which leaves you without a report and can leave the license unreleased.
  • Stopping an execution takes longer when either setting is selected, because Katalon Studio finishes the reporting phase before it exits.
