Selenium 4: Element screenshotting

08-10-2019 door Roy de Kleijn

As from Selenium 4 it is possible to take screenshots of WebElements. The code below shows how you can do that.

@Test
public void elementScreenShot() throws InterruptedException, IOException {
   driver.get("https://www.github.com");

   WebElement svg = driver.findElement(By.id("Layer_1"));

   File file = svg.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
   FileUtils.copyFile(file, new File("target/screenshot/element-screenshot.png"));

   // Added this sleep for demo purpose only
   Thread.sleep(15000);
}

Line 7 demonstrates how to take a screenshot of a WebElement.

If you want to perform screenshot comparisons, I recommend you take a look at Ashot API.
