Hi Mukesh,
Your teaching and explanation is excellent I loved it.
I have one question which is,
In cell I click on drop down and select a value, after selecting the value it'll move to next cell and will do same action so, can you please explain it?

but if the failure is due to a hard assert, then the execution will stop at that statement, it wont go to the @after method. Am i missing something here?

[desiChiraiya]

hello sir all of your videos are very helpful !
recently i tried taking screenshot of fail test cases it only takes screenshot of window where the test case got failed, My point is the screenshot should include error message and red signs also how to do it ?
thanks in advance!

Hi mukesh, In this video, you explained how to take a screenshot if a test case fail, so the screenshot comes in the name of the test case. suppose the test case has more than one assert and I'm using soft assert my whole test case is going to pass but suppose in my test more then one assert fail so how to take screenshots of all the assert fail and provide a name to those screenshot related to the assert?

[hossenchannel]

Very Informative...and a frequently asked Selenium interview question !! Do you have any video on the step where lets say step is passed and we have to validation with Assert.assert method

[kannansekar]

[anitham]

[salwakhan]

Hello sir, I am taking multiple inputs from excel sheet and running a test case . If 2 or more input tests fail then also this will create single screenshot because result.getName() returns the same name on every failer so this will create a single screenshot every time due to the same name. Please tell me how to set a different name to every failure test screenshot?

Hi Mukesh Really very nice step wise explanation.
Thanks
Appreciated
Need your help and opinion, which is best eclipse plugin or any other software to open *.png

[vinann]

Hi Mukesh, As usual a very good informative video Thanks a lot.
How can we take the screenshot using Listeners?

Hi Mukesh, Why did you put "ITestResult result" as a parameter for the method. Why cannot be simply declare it as in the body of the method.
