Summary

LambdaTest has introduced a feature in its Automated Screenshot Testing tool that allows users to capture screenshots of web pages that require login authentication, a much-requested capability. This feature enables users to bypass a website's login form and capture screenshots of web pages post-login without having to write automation test scripts, using a point-and-click interface instead. Users can create Login Profiles that store the necessary login information, including Login URL, Locators, and Credentials, to automate the login process. Each account can maintain up to five Login Profiles, with options to edit or delete them as needed. This feature aims to enhance cross-browser testing efficiency and coverage, although it currently only supports desktop browsers and is not available for certain older operating systems. LambdaTest is committed to expanding this functionality to mobile devices and encourages user feedback to improve the feature.
