I need to record the browser actions like a visual
Is there any way to record the screen on firefox as a video using addons or any other. I am using firefox version 34

Answer 1

You can include it in your test. Here is an example for C#. To make this work, you need to install Microsoft Expression Encoder and add the reference to your project
using Microsoft.Expression.Encoder.ScreenCapture;
string timestamp = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy-hh-mm-ss");
ScreenCaptureJob vidrec = new ScreenCaptureJob();
vidrec.OutputScreenCaptureFileName = #"C:/yourPathToSaveFile/yourFilename " + timestamp + ".wmv";
vidrec.Start();
// your test
vidrec.Stop();
