Take screenshot¶
Splinter can take current view screenshot easily:
browser = Browser()
screenshot_path = browser.screenshot('absolute_path/your_screenshot.png')
You should use the absolute path to save screenshot. If you don’t use an absolute path, the screenshot will be saved in a temporary file.
Take a full view screenshot:
browser = Browser()
screenshot_path = browser.screenshot('absolute_path/your_screenshot.png', full=True)
Take element screenshot¶
First, if you want to use this function, you should install the Pillow dependency:
pip install Pillow
If the element in the current view:
browser = Browser()
browser.visit('http://example.com')
screenshot_path = browser.find_by_xpath('xpath_rule').first.screenshot('absolute_path/your_screenshot.png')
If the element not in the current view, you should do it like this:
browser = Browser()
browser.visit('http://example.com')
screenshot_path = browser.find_by_xpath('xpath_rule').first.screenshot('absolute_path/your_screenshot.png', full=True)
