TestRecorder

Record a video automatically when tests failed. The videos are generated in tmp/videos directory.

This gem was inspired by Record video feature of Playwright.

This gem depends on FFmpeg. Please install that package.

On Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

Rails system tests and RSpec(System Spec and Feature Spec).

Currently, this gem only supports a Headless Chrome.

Using Bundler, add the following to your Gemfile:

gem 'test-recorder', group: :test

require 'test_recorder/rails'

require 'test_recorder/rspec'

TestRecorder records all tests by default. But if you want to limit the tests, you can do it by specifying metadata.

Using Bundler, add the following to your Gemfile:

gem 'activesupport-testing-metadata', group: :test

# test/test_helper.rb
require 'test_recorder/rails'
require 'active_support/testing/metadata'

TestRecorder.disable!

test "test to something", test_recorder: true do
  # ...
end

You don't need to install other gems. Only disable TestRecorder, and specified tests with the tag.

# test/test_helper.rb
require 'test_recorder/rspec'

TestRecorder.disable!

it "test to something", test_recorder: true do
  # ...
end
