Configure TestRail integration in Katalon Studio

The TestRail Integration plugin establishes the connection between Katalon Studio and TestRail to deliver the following advanced capabilities:

• In TestRail, you can view test results of test suites executed in Katalon Studio.

• In Katalon Studio, you can query test cases associated with test runs of TestRail in the dynamic test suite.
