Why does it take a long time to interact with elements in desktop testing ?

Switching from one page to another page takes too much time. How to reduce the time switching the windows?

Windows testing in Katalon Studio is based on Microsoft's WinAppDriver. Generally, here are the steps that Appium needs to go through to switch windows:

1. Scan windows and create a source map

2. Apply the object's locator to search

3. Winappdriver will apply the command on the desktop application

That's the reason why it takes a certain amount of time when switching windows.

To reduce time when switching windows, we recommend you turn off unnecessary applications and update to the latest version of WinAppDriver.
