Regression cadence, as 9 to 10 hour manual suites move to parallel cloud execution
Of citizen-facing workflows and payment paths chartered for automated coverage
Manage manual, automated, and AI-driven testing alongside your existing frameworks in a single governed workspace.
Manual testing effort, as AI turns manual runs into reusable automation
Explore the testing challenges unique to government and public sector programs and discover how Katalon helps agencies modernize QA, accelerate automation, and deliver services with confidence.
There is no automation in place, only manual testing. We are still procuring devices, and testing is a bottleneck because we simply aren't doing much of it.

Katalon True Automation gives a team with zero existing practice its first automation without a coding requirement, and True Platform layers on management and governance from day one instead of being bolted on years later.

Address the complexities of national and regional mandates with a testing platform designed to support the unique requirements of public sector programs across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa.
US federal and state programs evidence controls under FedRAMP, StateRAMP and NIST 800-53; Canadian departments do the same under CCCS ITSG-33 and Protected B hosting.
QA impact: Every release needs traceable, evidenced test runs you can hand an assessor on demand.
Section 508 in the US and the Accessible Canada Act north of the border both hold citizen-facing services to WCAG 2.1 AA.
QA impact: Accessibility checks must run on each release, not once a year before an audit.
Mainframe and COBOL-era benefits, tax and licensing migrations multiply regression risk while QA talent stays scarce.
QA impact: You need automated regression that scales without adding senior automation engineers.
US state and federal oversight bodies, plus Canadian departments, each expecting audit-ready evidence

Three outcomes public sector QA teams need, in one governed platform.
Stable, self-healing coverage across the cores your business runs on.
One system of record with the evidence auditors expect.
AI accelerates coverage while your team stays in control.
Meet your team where it is today, and grow into automation and governance at your own pace.
One platform for all testing, manual, automated and AI-driven, under a single source of truth. Cut tool sprawl and cost, and support teams at every stage of their AI journey.
One platform for all testing, manual, automated and AI-driven, under a single source of truth. Cut tool sprawl and cost, and support teams at every stage of their AI journey.
A shared system of record for automation: test management, governance, compliance and visibility across teams, plus hybrid execution with Studio and Playwright.
One all-in-one IDE for every skill level, no-code, low-code, full-code, AI-assisted and agentic, so mixed teams build UI-driven and headless tests fast.
Self-hosted, command-line execution inside your own network with zero data egress. An add-on to True Automation or KSE for regulated environments.
Every manual and automated test, run and result in one governed source of truth, secured for enterprise review from day one.
AI agents draft, run and self-heal tests while your QA team reviews and approves every step, so automation accelerates releases without ever running unchecked.
SSO and SCIM with your IdP; RBAC limits who can manage, run or view test artefacts.
Every edit, run and result logged for internal audit and regulatory examination.
Isolated, governed workspaces by agency, program and department.
Map every test to a requirement or Jira ticket and prove coverage at any release.
Encryption in transit and at rest, daily backups and least-privilege access.
Plugs into your CI/CD, ALM and DevOps stack, no rip and replace, with audit trails intact for oversight bodies.
Across CI/CD, ALM and test management, source control and cross-browser testing, plus a REST API and webhooks for anything else.
“The transition to Katalon was very smooth, and it is a tremendously easy testing platform to pick up.”
Lead QA Engineer, national service agency
Monthly releases to the portal and its eligibility rules made solely manual regression unfeasible under Agile - only ~30 scenarios could be covered across two days.
Code-free scripting with straightforward object recognition automated regression across critical citizen journeys, plus API testing to verify integrations with downstream departmental systems.
100+ scenarios per service per release, testing capacity more than tripled, and the regression cycle cut from two days to two hours - with far less overtime.
The agency migrated thousands of cases from Jira / XRay into Katalon TestOps and validated online intake, rules configuration and intelligent document processing on a single governed platform.
A resident-data-heavy agency replaced its incumbent tool with Katalon for citizen-facing web and mobile testing, using private hosting, SSO and own-repo options to keep sensitive data governed and AI usage controlled.
Examples above are anonymized public sector engagements; figures reflect measured customer outcomes.

“Katalon solved a major problem for me by providing a single platform for all my automation. With traditional tools, maintenance was a constant overhead, but now I can manage everything in one place.”

“I'm a Selenium guy who learnt to code the traditional way. With Katalon it's super easy to automate new scenarios and maintain existing ones when the application changes - and it works with our CI/CD pipelines.”

“Everything you need for automation testing is in one platform - web, API and desktop. It's easy to implement tests even for QA who aren't tech-savvy, and we convert manual steps into automated scripts quickly.”
