Test Capture

Overview: Test Capture

Test Capture tracks the execution session while a test case is run. When a log is recorded, it includes both visual output and execution data.

Log can be captured:

  • during execution
  • or after a failure occurs

No advance setup is required to capture failures.


Manual test execution often relies on separate tools and manual steps to capture log. This leads to interrupted execution flow, missed failure moments, incomplete recordings, and repeated test execution only to collect proof. log that is captured frequently lacks sufficient execution and technical context for effective defect analysis.

Test Capture addresses these issues by capturing log and execution data as part of the original test run, without requiring advance setup or re-execution.


  • Capture Instant Replay after execution or failure
  • Capture screenshots during test execution
  • Record the current browser tab during execution
  • Automatically collect execution context
  • Capture network activity logs

Each recorded log includes the following information:

  • Instant Replay or video recording of the execution
  • Application URL
  • Browser name and version
  • Operating system
  • Screen resolution
  • Viewport size
  • Timezone
  • Timestamp of capture
  • Network requests and responses

All captured data is displayed with the log in the test execution view.


  • Log is attached to the test case execution within the test run.
  • Log appears in the Activity section of the test case.
  • Test case execution status changes (Passed, Failed, Retest, Blocked) and tester comments are recorded with the log.

The Test Capture Chrome Extension must be installed and configured in the browser used for test execution.
