Unable to detect all elements during mobile testing on BrowserStack

When running mobile tests on BrowserStack, Katalon Studio may fail to detect all elements during test execution.

Starting from Katalon Studio version 10.x, the supported Appium version is 2.x. However, the default Appium version on BrowserStack is 1.x. This mismatch between the two Appium versions causes the issue.

To resolve the issue, you need to define the Appium version in your project settings. Follow these steps:

1. Go to Project Settings > Desired Capabilities > Remote.
2. Add the following configurations.

   

   Ensure that you specify the Appium version under bstack:options.

   As an example, set the Appium version to 2.6.0 to resolve the compatibility issue.

3. Click OK to save changes.
