Good video, can I do the same with playwright?

[@automateNow]

Thank you. Here is what that might look like using Java Playwright and Apache POI: import com.microsoft.playwright.*; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument; import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFParagraph; import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFRun; import org.apache.poi.util.Units; public class ScreenshotToWord { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { try (Playwright playwright = Playwright.create()) { Browser browser = playwright.chromium().launch(); Page page = browser .newPage(); page.navigate("automatenow.io"); // Capture screenshot directly to a byte array byte[] screenshotBytes = page.screenshot(); // Create a new Word document XWPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument(); XWPFParagraph paragraph = document.createParagraph(); XWPFRun run = paragraph.createRun(); // Add the screenshot to the document (assuming PNG) run.addPicture(screenshotBytes, XWPFDocument.PICTURE_TYPE_PNG, "screenshot", Units.toEMU(400), Units.toEMU(300)); // Write the document to a file try (FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("document_with_screenshot.docx")) { document.write(out); } // Cleanup document.close(); browser.close(); } } }

I think you shoudlve explained the following code: TakeScreenshot screenshot = (TakeScreenshot) driver; File file = screenshot.getScreenshortAs(OutputType.FILE); a bit more in detail.

[@automateNow]

Here is an explanation of the code: TakeScreenshot screenshot = (TakeScreenshot) driver; = TakeScreenshot is an interface in Selenium that provides a method to capture a screenshot. This line of code casts the driver (which is an instance of WebDriver) to the TakeScreenshot interface. This allows you to use the getScreenshotAs method, which is not available directly through the WebDriver interface. File file = screenshot.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE); = getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE) is a method of the TakeScreenshot interface that captures the current screenshot and stores it in a File object. OutputType.FILE specifies that the output of the screenshot should be in the form of a File. The method returns a File object that represents the screenshot captured.

Hi sir can you tell how to add picture in Excel file? using NPOI

[@automateNow]

Hi Yogesh. At the moment, I'm not doing .NET-type videos since there isn't a lot of demand for them. But I'll keep you request in mind for future videos. Have a look here in case it helps. www.codeproject.com/Articles/1241654/Export-to-Excel-using-NPOI-Csharp-and-WEB-API

I am getting blank screenshots , Any help will be appreciated

[@automateNow]

Hi Vishal. Are you using the source code from automateNow's GitHub page or are you using your own code?

[@pratikbhowmik]

can you create a video on test driven development , but please make a video on how to integrate with utility class so that the whole test driven development is generic

[@automateNow]

Hi Pratik, thank you for your request. This channel mainly focuses on automated testing, but I'll take your request into consideration for future planning.

Nice Video, I need help in adding screeenshots in word document one by one, I tried above code it getting old screenshot replaced with new screesnshot. Please help

[@automateNow]

Hi Lokendernarh, thanks for your request. I'll update the source code on GitHub to meet your needs and let you know when you can try the new code.

[@automateNow]

Hi Lokendernath, please see the latest video that answers your request. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGe0g3iVmbN4bqs

[@pabbureddy3567]

I need help sir, recently I saw your ur video regarding to get screenshot when soft assertion fails, but my query is suppose if 2 soft assertion fails how can I get 2 screenshots in pom framework, currently am getting only one screenshot which is 2 nd assertion fail

[@automateNow]

Hi Pabbu, thank you for your question. Here I am providing a link to where you can get the source code used in the video that you are referring to. If you run the same test that I use in the video, you will see that two screenshots are taken; one for each of the assertion failures. I hope this helps but please feel free to reach out if you are still having trouble. github.com/automatenow/general-webdriver

HI sir, am getting error at line , Path screenshotsPath = Path.of("./failed_tests/"); especially error at text 'of', here is the error message - The method of(String) is undefined for the type Path, any idea? is this code works with only selenium 4 version
