Monitored Selenium Keywords The listener captures screenshots for the following Selenium keywords:

1. Click Element
2. Input Text
3. Press Keys
4. Get Text
5. Get Element Attribute
6. Page Should Contain
7. Page Should Not Contain
8. Element Should Be Visible
9. Element Should Not Be Visible
10. Close Browser
11. Click Button
12. Click Link
13. Click
14. Fill Text

How It Works . Test Start: Creates a root directory and test-specific subdirectory . Keyword Execution: Before each monitored Selenium keyword, captures a screenshot . File Naming: Screenshots are named sequentially (selenium_0.png, selenium_1.png, etc.) . Test End: Resets the screenshot counter for the next test

Technical Details

Class Structure . API Version: Uses Robot Framework Listener API version 2 . Key Methods: . start_test(): Initializes test-specific screenshot directory . start_keyword(): Captures screenshots before keyword execution . end_keyword(): Handles post-keyword cleanup

Dependencies . robot.libraries.BuiltIn: For accessing Robot Framework variables and keywords . robot.libraries.String: For string manipulation . os: For file system operations . shutil: For directory operations

Usage

robot --listener robotframework_auto_screenshot_listener.ScreenshotListener:ScreenshotDirectoryName <TestFilePath.robot>
