No Screenshots or Videos

Screenshots and videos are produced by the Playwright run configuration. If they are missing, the run may not have reached the browser step, the configuration may not capture that evidence, or the evidence upload to TestVibe's cloud may not have finished yet.

First Checks​

  1. Confirm the run has finished or reached a step that can capture evidence.
  2. Check whether the selected configuration saves screenshots or videos.
  3. Check whether evidence is saved only on failure.
  4. Refresh the run detail page after the run finishes uploading evidence.

What To Use Instead​

  • console logs
  • network details
  • trace files, if trace capture was enabled
