Screen recording during tests #3772

Hi!
Do you know any way (even by using a third party plugin) to record the browser's screen during tests?
The screenshot that is taken in case of failure is often not sufficient, as we need to know what happened prior to the issue.
Currently, we have workaround this by implementing a thread that is taking screenshot every x FPS, using SB screenshot function. Then the images are converted to MP4 in case of a failing test, and save. To achieve that, we have overwritten SetUp and Teardown of SB.

Even if this perfectly working, with all browser, this is not efficient as it will surcharge the Webdriver and thus, slow down the execution of the test (even though it is running in a sperate thread).

Any help would be really appreciated 👍

Thanks
