screenshot when failure or error with selenium & python

[joesri]

Hi,

I am using selenium with python and using HTMLTestRunner for reporting.

I would like to have a screenshot taken when a test fails or errors out  also send the result as error or failure.  If I add a try/catch, since there is a catch, selenium reports it as passed and HTMLTestRunner shows everything as green eventhough the test failed.  Am I doing something wrong?  If not, how to handle this?

Is there a parameter, I can send to selenium in the catch to specify the case failed or errored out?

Thank you
Jo

you can re-raise the exception after you catch and capture your screenshot.  just use 'raise' in your except block after you take the screenshot.
