Answer / guest

To capture the ACTIVE WINDOW on the screen u can use the key
combination of : ALT + PRINTSCREEN.

(u wont see any change/result when u perform this operation)

now open paintbrush / msword / notepad and paste there. save
the file and this file can be used as an attachment to send
to the developer).

To capture the ENTIRE SCREEN AS A WINDOW then u can use the
key : PRINTSCREEN.

now open paintbrush / msword / notepad and paste there. save
the file and this file can be used as an attachment to send

You can also use snagit software, which takes less memory
space and helps you to capture a particular area instead of
the entire screen.

save it in your notepad/Ms Word and attach it along with
your mail and send it.

Answer / sirisha

During execution of a testcase when any error dialog is
appeared on the screen, we capture the absolute image
through 'PrintScreen' (keys) as an evidence of the raised
issue & this snapshot will be appended to the bug report for
developer analysis.

PrintScreen:: Selection gives image along with
TimeStamp,which helps developer to analyze through exact
timestamp from backend files if required.
