  • Keyword name: takeElementScreenshotAsCheckpoint
  • Keyword syntax: 
    Mobile.takeElementScreenshotAsCheckpoint(String checkpointName, TestObject to, List<TestObject> ignoredElements, Color hidingColor, FailureHandling flowControl)

  • Parameters:

    • Name: checkpointName

      • Description: A String representing the name of the image on TestOps Vision. This name will be used to detect which baseline this checkpoint is compared with. On a local machine, this name will be appended with the TestOps Vision prefix ('keyes-').

      • Parameter Type: List

    • Name: hidingColor

      • Description: The color used to draw the overlap layer. If not defined, Color.GRAY is used.

    • Name: flowControl

      • Description: Specify failure handling schema to determine whether the execution should be allowed to continue or stop.
      • STOPONFAILURE: throws a StepFailedException if the step fails (default).

  • Throw: StepFailedException if the UI element cannot be found or Katalon Studio cannot store the image in the disk.
