Fill both blanks to save a screenshot with a dynamic filename including the test name.

Selenium Python

def test_login(driver):
    try:
        assert driver.current_url == "https://example.com/dashboard"

Using incorrect method names for saving screenshots.

Not using the test name in the filename.

The filename uses the test function name test_login. The method to save the screenshot is get_screenshot_as_file.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to implement a pytest fixture that takes a screenshot on test failure.

Selenium Python

import pytest

@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
def screenshot_on_failure(request, driver):
    yield
    if request.node.rep_call.[1]:
        driver.[2](f"[3].png")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Afailed

Bget_screenshot_as_file

Crequest.node.name

Dpassed

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Checking for 'passed' instead of 'failed'.

Using wrong method names for screenshot saving.

Not using the test name for the screenshot filename.

The fixture checks if the test failed. It saves a screenshot using get_screenshot_as_file with the test name from request.node.name.
