Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you need straightforward Selenium-based page or element screenshots with element-hiding support. The low install friction and permissive license make it accessible. However, the aging maintenance status and lack of recent release activity warrant caution if you depend on active support or compatibility with very recent Selenium or browser driver versions; verify compatibility with your specific environment first.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a Selenium WebDriver instance (e.g., ChromeDriver) and a running browser; Python 3.6.1 or later.
- Low install friction with two straightforward dependencies (Pillow and selenium).
- Maintenance status is aging—last commit was 2025-07-24, though the repository remains active and not archived.

What it is and what it does
Selenium Screenshot wraps Selenium WebDriver to automate the capture of web page screenshots at the full-page or individual-element level. It accepts CSS selectors or WebElement objects to hide specific DOM nodes before capture, useful for removing sticky headers, navigation bars, or other transient UI elements from the final image. The package outputs PNG files and integrates directly with an existing Selenium browser session.
The tool is designed for test automation, visual regression testing, documentation generation, or any workflow where you need programmatic screenshots of live web content. It depends on Pillow for image handling and selenium for browser control, and targets Python 3.6.1 and later.
Use it for
- Capture full-page screenshots in automated test suites while hiding dynamic UI elements like sticky headers.
- Extract and save screenshots of specific page sections (e.g., infoboxes, content areas) for documentation or reports.
- Generate visual snapshots of web pages for regression testing or visual comparison workflows.
- Automate screenshot collection across multiple pages or URLs for archival or monitoring purposes.
