Is adding screenshot a feature of ChainTest ?

[raghavhsp]

Hi @anshooarora !

Great to see this amazing reporting feature. I wasn't able to find feature to capture and attach screenshot like Extent Report.
Please help me if i am missing any piece of the puzzel.

Looking forward to your response!

Hi @raghavhsp Screenshots are directly handled by the plugin. So for example, with cucumber, if you run this within the hook:

@After
public void afterHook(final Scenario scenario) {
  scenario.attach(bytes, "image/png", "");
}

The above will automatically be attached and also saved to disk relative to the report file in resources directory.

Great!
I'll try for sure.

My home page feature file looks like this

Feature: Feature to test homepage of ESPN Cric info

@homepagetest
Scenario: Verify user can see Live Scores tab after clicking on Live score link
Given User is on website
And User looks for title
When User clicks on Live Scores
Then User can see Live Scores tab on the page

Test runner

package runners;
import io.cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
import io.cucumber.junit.CucumberOptions;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
features = {"src/test/java/FeatureFiles"},
glue = {"stepsDef" },
tags = "@homepagetest",
dryRun = false,
monochrome = true,
plugin = {
"html:target/cucumber-html-report.html",
"com.aventstack.chaintest.plugins.ChainTestCucumberListener:", "summary"
})

public class TestRunners {
}

As soon as comment line of code for chain test my feautre file runs perfectly

Updates to plugin docs with a new Screenshots section (applicable to version 1.0.5 onwards).

• JUnit5
• TestNG

public void onTestFailure(ITestResult result) {

    Log.error("Test [" + result.getName() + "] failed", result.getThrowable());
    result.setAttribute("failureScreenshot", Screenshot.takeScreenShot("Failure_" + result.getName()));

You haven't specified the output type of this method, if any. It's not possible to provide an answer in this context. But since you have Selenium as a dependency and referring to TakesScreenshot and OutputType, you can:

byte[] bytes = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES);
ChainTestListener.embed(bytes, "image/png");

actually this code is written by someone else, i just started 2 days back in this project, i will check and let you know the result. Thanks for your support.

[surjeetsingh21]

I can see that screenshots are attached and displayed in the static 'index.html' report, but they are still not displayed in the report hosted on localhost via Docker.
