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.

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.
