When taking a screenshot using Selenium Webdriver on windows with python, the screenshot is saved directly to the path of the program, is there a way to save the .png file to a specific directory?


Use driver.save_screenshot('/path/to/file') or driver.get_screenshot_as_file('/path/to/file'):

import selenium.webdriver as webdriver
import contextlib

@contextlib.contextmanager
def quitting(thing):
    yield thing
    thing.quit()

with quitting(webdriver.Firefox()) as driver:
    driver.implicitly_wait(10)
    driver.get('http://www.google.com')
    driver.get_screenshot_as_file('/tmp/google.png') 
    # driver.save_screenshot('/tmp/google.png')

Inspired from this thread (same question for Java): Take a screenshot with Selenium WebDriver

from selenium import webdriver

browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('http://www.google.com/')
browser.save_screenshot('screenie.png')
browser.quit()

Yes, we have a way to get screenshot extension of .png using python webdriver

use below code if you working in python webriver.it is very simple.

driver.save_screenshot('D\folder\filename.png')

driver.save_screenshot("path to save \\screen.jpeg")
