Java Development Kit (JDK) Prerequisite

Qualitia recommends using the 64-bit JDK versions of Java 11 or higher on which Qualitia Automation Studio (QAS) has been tested successfully.

The recommended versions are:

Azul Zulu: 11.0.21 or higher
Oracle: 17 or higher
OpenJDK: 11.0.22 or higher

We recommend Oracle 17 as Oracle 11 has several vulnerabilities.

Qualitia allows you to install QAS using other JDK versions also. However, only the versions listed above are tested. If you use any other version, you may face issues while executing test cases.
