Set explicit private/local testing modes

Currently, Katalon Studio only allows users to enable or disable Private/Local testing. You cannot explicitly configure the approach of whitelisting IPs or tunnel.

With the privateTesting desired capability, you can explicitly define the execution to run with TestCloud Tunnel or IP Whitelisting option.

Before you start

• Make sure your project has enabled TestCloud integration. See Enable TestCloud integration.

Whitelist mode

1. In Katalon Studio, go to Project Settings > Desired Capabilities > TestCloud and set the following desired capability.

   

2. Click Apply & Close.

3. Open the TestCloud Configuration dialog of the test suite, enable the Private/Local Testing option. You should see the message: "Status: Tunnel is available."

   

4. Execute your test suite/test suite collection as normal.

Auto-select tunnel mode

1. Go to Project Settings > Desired Capabilities > TestCloud and set the following desired capability.

   

2. Click Apply & Close.

3. In the TestCloud Configuration dialog of the test suite, ensure Private/Local Testing is disabled.

4. Execute your test suite/test suite collection.

Specify tunnel

To execute tests with a specific tunnel, you need to retrieve the Tunnel ID from TestOps.

Requirements

• To retrieve the Tunnel ID, you must have the Account Admin or System Admin role. Refer to this document for more details: Account level roles.

1. In TestOps, go to Admin Settings > System Configuration > TestCloud.

   

2. In the Tunnel tab, copy the Tunnel ID.

3. In Katalon Studio, go to Project Settings > Desired Capabilities > TestCloud.

4. Paste the ID into the selector field.

   

5. Click Apply & Close to save the settings, then execute your tests.
