How to get screenshot from RemoteWebDriver server instead of local FirefoxDriver?

Question

I am running Selenium WebDriver test on a remote PC from my laptop(java client), by using RemoteWebDriver. But RemoteWebDriver haven\'t provided screenshot API to directly

Answer 1

I think this is the best way:

public Object getScreenshotAs(OutputType outputType) {
    Augmenter augmenter = new Augmenter(); 
    TakesScreenshot ts = (TakesScreenshot) augmenter.augment(driver);
    return ts.getScreenshotAs(outputType);
}
