Test Capture feature in Test Management by Testsigma that runs alongside manual test execution. It automatically captures screen recordings, video logs, and network logs during testing, removing the need to manually record or attach logs after execution. All captured logs are automatically linked to the original test run, giving developers the visual and diagnostic context needed to investigate and resolve issues. This article provides an overview of Test Capture in Test Management.

What Test Capture Does

\n

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

\n

Log can be captured:

\n\n

No advance setup is required to capture failures.

\n
\n

Problems Addressed

\n

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.

\n

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.
