How to capture a screenshot using Krypton using Selenium Java

Question

I would like to seek help if there is a possible way / code to capture a screenshot under Krypton platform that uses JAVA selenium. I'm having trouble in terms of it's standardization. Thanks!

var driver = new ChromeDriver()
driver.get("https://login.bws.birst.com/login.html/")
File scrFile = ((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE)
FileUtils.copyFile(scrFile, new File("c:\\tmp\\screenshot.png"))

Can you update the question with the exact problem you are facing in terms of _standardization_ to help us what's going wrong? — undetected Selenium, Jan 04 '19 at 06:58
I don't have any code segment for screenshot right now but i have reference using selenium Java but when using it in krypton, it does not work — Mads Cruz, Jan 04 '19 at 07:18
That's the reason I am not sure if I can point you to an existing discussion or you require all together a different new answer. Your code trials and error would have helped us to some extent. — undetected Selenium, Jan 04 '19 at 07:20
all the objects are not working, i would like to ask if what should be the proper way when implementing screenshot when using krypton as a platform — Mads Cruz, Jan 04 '19 at 07:23
A lot of the contributors may not have access to systems with krypton as a platform and in that case some sample lines of settings/code/error might have helped. — undetected Selenium, Jan 04 '19 at 07:28

As per the screenshots there seems to be some discrepency with the imports/Classes. Further to keep things simpler create destination folder within the Project Scope e.g. the Screenshots directory below:

To capture a screenshot using Java you can use the following solution:

Code Block:

package screenShot;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import org.openqa.selenium.OutputType;
import org.openqa.selenium.TakesScreenshot;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeOptions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class takesScreenshot {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Utility\\BrowserDrivers\\chromedriver.exe");
        ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
        options.addArguments("start-maximized");
        options.addArguments("disable-infobars");
        options.addArguments("--disable-extensions"); 
        WebDriver driver =  new ChromeDriver(options);
        driver.get("https://login.bws.birst.com/login.html/");
        new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.titleContains("Birst"));
        File scrFile = ((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
        FileUtils.copyFile(scrFile, new File(".\\Screenshots\\Mads_Cruz_screenshot.png"));
    }
}

i'd tried implementing that on my code removing the driver part since i have my own set up. now im having issue on "File scrFile" part but i have my import library for that i don't why it does not work — Mads Cruz, Jan 07 '19 at 03:09
please see the latest photo attached. i have import java.io.File; idk why it's still not working — Mads Cruz, Jan 07 '19 at 03:17
