Screenshot Log
A Screenshot Log command is associated with an action command to provide documentation for that action command. It generates a log entry with optional accompanying screenshot. The Command is only active when an agent is run with screenshot log turned on.
Example
Below screenshot shows the simplest example where the Screenshot Log command can be used.
Screenshot Log commands can be used to generate a log file that consists of a sequence of text entries with associated screenshots. This can be used in agents designed to test procedures on a website, to also produce simple documentation for the procedure. Please see the topicWebsite Testing & Documentation for more information.
Screenshot Log commands are ignored unless the agent is run using the button Create Screenshot Log from the Tools menu.
Press the Create Screenshot Log button to generate documentation.
