Getting the right answer to a technical question, right when you need it, can be the difference between a minor speedbump and a major roadblock. We all know the feeling of being stuck on a specific error or needing a quick "how-to" guide to keep a project moving. That's why we’re excited to announce that the new 24/7 Katalon Support Assistant is now live in production! It's an AI-powered technical support agent and the fastest way to get the help you need, anytime.

Insurance companies face unique challenges in delivering reliable software quickly. Policy updates, claims processing, and regulatory compliance all demand precision and speed. Manual testing alone can create delays, introduce errors, and increase operational risk. That's where test automation for insurance industry comes in. Repetitive regression tests that previously take up so much time can easily be automated.

Hi everyone, I’m Elly, Katalon Community Specialist by title, tester at heart. I spend a good chunk of my time researching around the Katalon Forum reading bug reports, answering questions, and watching how this brilliant community solves problems together. Over the past month, I’ve been tracking what everyone’s been talking about: the tricky bugs, the clever fixes, and the shout-worthy contributions. This post is my way of sharing that back with all of you.

DevOps is a practice, not a tool, but tools are needed to implement it. Breaking down walls of communication and creating visibility and trust across all the teams involved in delivering software and technology is challenging. The right tools make the automation and integrations needed across functional teams seamless, open, and scalable. This article looks at the top CI/CD, automation, orchestration, and other DevOps pipeline tools to give you a detailed list of our Top 15 DevOps tools in 2025.

Test automation has evolved far beyond QA. Today, it plays a direct role in product speed, developer efficiency, and even customer retention. That means one thing: it’s no longer just a technical investment. It’s a financial decision. If you’re a CFO, you’ve likely seen test automation mentioned in strategy decks or budget line items. But what does the return really look like?

In a world where digital velocity defines competitiveness, quality can no longer be a bottleneck: it must be a catalyst. To help enterprises scale with confidence, Katalon and QualityKiosk Technologies (QK) have partnered to launch a transformative QA Assessment Initiative. This initiative is designed to benchmark, elevate, and future-proof quality assurance practices across industries.

As we wrap this blog series, let’s take a step back. We’ve explored how agentic QA systems can support traditional software testing: one assistant, one workflow, one metric at a time. But what does it all add up to? The answer isn’t “more automation.” It’s more visibility, more alignment, and more confidence across the software delivery lifecycle.

Manual regression feels simple on the surface. You run your tests again after a code change, check what still works, and you ship. But beneath the surface, it eats time (since manually executing test steps take too much time). It also eats budget, and it quietly slows your release velocity. If you’ve ever thought, “we just need a few days to finish regression,” you’ve likely already paid more than you think. That’s why we created this guide.

One of the key tasks of a finance/banking/insurance QA team is to ensure that defects never slip into production. Automation testing plays a critical role in accomplishing that task. However, now that we have AI, the industry is changing. Fast. Just automation testing is not enough. It should now be augmented by the capabilities of AI. When done right, AI-augmented automation testing is a game-changer for QA teams in finance firms. Here's the playbook to help your team achieve exactly just that.

ATLANTA, GA - October 20, 2025 - Katalon, the global leader in AI-augmented software testing, today announced the official launch of Katalon Scout, an AI Quality Companion designed for the vibe coding era. Built on Amazon Web Services (AWS)’s Agentic AI technologies, Scout enables enterprises to ensure quality at the speed of generative AI development, helping teams build, validate, and deliver software with confidence and precision.
