Selenium WebDriver Session 18 - How to Capture Screenshot of a page

How to Capture Screenshot of a page with the help of TakesScreenshot interface, getScreenshotAs() & copy() method and File & FileHandler class - Selenium WebDriver Session 18 by Haradhan Pal

Capturing Screenshot in Selenium WebDriver is a 3 Step process:

1. Since TakesScreenshot is an interface, user cannot create an object directly. User need to convert the web driver object to TakesScreenshot.
TakesScreenshot screenshot =((TakesScreenshot)driver);

2. User need to call getScreenshotAs() method to create an image file which is provided by the TakesScreenshot interface to capture the screenshot of the web page displayed in the driver object.
Here, the argument “OutputType.FILE” specified in the getScreenshotAs() method will return the capture screenshot in the form of file. Therefore, user can store in the variable ‘srcFile’ with type File.

3. Save the file object returned by getScreenshotAs() method using copy() method of the FileHandler class.
