Disabling screen capture?

[Kevin Burton]

I am running a test script (using Selenium2Library) that seems to work but it captures the screen about 13 times during the test run. I could not see any errors that would cause this automatic screen dump. I have added some python code. Do I need to explicitly return a success code? If so what is it? Thank you.

I found that the screen dump happens after the code does

try:

    ....

except AssertError:

    return

Do I need to somehow clear the error? I also notice that the screen dump is still triggered but if I try to log the error using Python's logging module the log.html contains [WARN] each time that the exception happens.

Thank you.

Ugh

The S2L (assuming that we are talking about python version) Run On Failure feature, which is done by a decorator and a with meta class, is quite neat feature. The Run On Failure feature [2] code itself, contains at first glimpse some magical code [3], where one has do understand quite a lot of python internals before, one can understand how the magic converts to understanding. And do not ask from me, I have not yet converted all to magic to understanding :-) One can start by reading from the Robot Framework user guide [1] explanation and links how to use decorators with Robot Framework.

That being said and without seeing your code, I would ques that you call S2L library keyword in your code. And that keyword fails and the failure triggers Run On Failure functionality (on S2L library), which on default takes a screen capture. But the good news is, you can suppress the Run On Failure, see details from Register Keyword To Run On Failure [2] keyword.
