behavex-images
BehaveX extension library to attach images to the test execution report.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use BehaveX and need visual evidence in test reports. Install friction is low and the library is straightforward. However, the aging maintenance status (364 days since last release, minimal repository activity) means you should verify compatibility with your BehaveX version before relying on it for production test pipelines. No known vulnerabilities.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires BehaveX and Behave to be installed; context object must be available from a BehaveX step or hook.
- Low install friction with a pure Python wheel.
- Maintenance status is aging—last release was 364 days ago and the repository has minimal activity (1 star), though it remains unarchived and the last commit is recent.

What it is and what it does
behavex-images is a small extension library that plugs into BehaveX to embed images directly into the HTML reports generated from Behave test runs. It provides four main methods: attaching images from binary data (e.g., screenshots from Selenium), attaching images from file paths, setting conditions for when images should be included (always, only on failure, or never), and clearing attached images. The library depends on BehaveX, Behave, Pillow for image handling, and filelock for concurrency safety.
You use it by importing the image_attachments module and calling its methods from within step definitions or environment hooks. It's designed to integrate seamlessly into existing BehaveX projects without requiring changes to test structure—you simply call the attachment methods at the points where you want images captured (e.g., after taking a screenshot in a Selenium test).
Use it for
- Embed screenshots into test reports automatically after each step or only when a test fails, for visual debugging.
- Attach Selenium WebDriver screenshots to BehaveX HTML reports to document test execution state.
- Include pre-generated images (diagrams, UI mockups, reference images) in test reports for comparison or documentation.
- Set a global attachment condition in environment.py hooks to control whether images appear in all reports or only failure reports.
