SNAP SHOT is meaning of capturing images. It is the new 
buzz for capturing images. Here in INDIA we ask to take 
photos but now its called as take a snap of mine.
These SNAP SHOTS are captured by testers to forward it to 
developers.
Why do we need to capture and forward it to developers? 
This is done to give some more information to developers. 
Generally testers will be capturing snapshots of the work 
environment or the application. This is done when testers 
finds a bug and wants to give some clear information to the 
developers where they are finding the bugs. "A picture says 
more than Thousand words" SORRY "A SNAP SHOT says more than 
thousand words"

I Hope, I have answered the question

In the field of testing. Snap shot is the picturezation of 
the error in your screen. When ever you write and test case 
and excute it.You may same defect or a message pops up on 
the screen.During that time just press the print screen key 
in your key board and then save it as a bitmap image. Then 
when you report a defect in a TOOL just attach the file so 
that the developer can get some idea of the image which you 
picturize in your computer screen when you are exiquting 
the test case.

SNAP SHORT is a way by which we can reproduce the bug to 
the develpoers

Hi,

   Snap Shot means Image of the screen,click on "Print 
Screen" button on keyboard.and save it in word..
it is required only when the developers say that this is 
not a defect..

Let me know if it is wrong.

Hi

Snap Shots are Read-only Images or documents.

It will be taken to compare the Images in automation
                     or
will be attached in MS-excel Doc Using Print Screen Option 
then we will send it to the Dev.Team To Understand the 
steps involved for Fix.

Snap shot is file ,it is send to developer for the purpose 
of find the bug easly or some time developer cant find bug 
writen format or if cant understan the exact meaning of bug 
discription . 
simply it taken from "print screen sysRq " or ctrl+c and 
past on the paint.exe or wordpad.

Snapshot is nothng but a photo copy of a window or dialog 
box, where exactly tester want to indicate the bad 
behaviour in the app to the develment team. Snapshots are 
helpful to the develper to see the bug in the app

"snap shot" when there is a space in between the two words
then it means a quick short in hockey or football.
when there is no space in between i.e. "snapshot" it means a
quick photography i.e without using any technique.

Snap Shot is nothing but taking the image from the 
project ..
we can take them using printscreen key from keyboard and 
pasting it in the print or whereever it is required.
So when we are reporting a defect to the developer we need 
to attach this file ..

whenever developer is not able to reproduce the same defect 
what we reported or else when evet the tester is not able 
to understand the reported defect from tester then it is 
better to send snap shot to the developer like this
