You can enable screenshots on every event by turning on Test Visualizer for both recording and playback.

Project → Properties → Visualizer
Set the following:

  • Collect Test Visualizer data during test run → Capture images or Capture images and object data
  • (Optional) Collect Test Visualizer data during recording → same setting
  • Ensure Capture style is consistent (e.g., Top-level parent)

In your new project these settings are enabled by default. In your old project they were likely turned off, so TestComplete only captured images on errors. Re-enable the settings in the old project and it will start capturing every event again.

If double-clicking a Visualizer frame doesn’t jump to the code, it’s because no Visualizer frame was recorded at that point—once you enable the settings above, this will work moving forward.

    Hello Hassan,

    Thank you. Actually i had all of those settings turned on but it still didnt capture screenshots.
    But when i updated tests from Jscript to javascript, it resolved my problem.

    Thank you once again and sorry for taking your time
