Capture screenshot when assert failed

[Benniu]

Hi, all

I'm using selenium webdriver 2.8 with ruby test unit.
The capture screenshot function is cool. But what I want is that the
screenshot can be captured automatically when assert failed.
How can achieve that?

Thank,
Ben

Hi Benniu,

 

We have achieved that by using exception handling mechanism in java.If asserts fails we throw an exception and in catch block we caputure the screen shot.

 

Can you please let me know if you need more details.

 

Thanks

Santhosh.

Hi,

If you are using TestNG, then you can add new method inside
Reporter.class to capture screen shots.
Ex. Reporter.logPicture("Picpath", "message") you can directly get the
picture as a link in Report.

Thanks,
Nagarajan.

Thanks Santhosh.

I know this could be achieved by try/catch in java. But I'm using ruby test unit rather than Java. Do you know how to achieve that in ruby?

Thanks,

Ben

By the way, I'm using ci_reporter to generate the report

I believe this should solve your problem... no?

begin
# something potentially bad
rescue Exception=>e
# handle e
end

I am using Selenium 2.7 with C#. Is there anything similar to Selenium.Capturescreenshot (if Im correct). I tried to find a way to capture screen shot but, when I run my scripts it keeps flickering and only a part of the screen is caputred as snapshot.

Any help in this regards?

Thanks in advance.

Here is a better code to take snapshot. The Beauty of this code is that it takes snapshot only if Test Script fails.

We are using TestUnit, and I have found success with this implementation:

  def teardown
    puts "Shutdown initialized"
    if !@test_passed
      @driver.save_screenshot Time.now.strftime("%F_%H%M%S") + "_" + @method_name + "-FAILED"
    end
    @driver.quit

    end
