Screenshot command
Captures an image of the current screen display, in the selected format. The digital screenshot included in the report. Additional configurations include capturing an analog image, saving the image in the repository, and reducing the image resolution for long scripts that result in large reports.
Use this function to see how the application looks at any given time during a script run. For additional time saving, enable the Grid label advanced parameter to generate a separate view mode with customizable screenshot labels.
You can also use this command for dynamic image validation during runtime. This means that during runtime, a device screenshot image can be saved to the repository and then compared to the current screen on the device to validate what was expected.
