Summary

  • Skip embedded Win32 child windows in failure screenshots so only real top-level pop-ups are captured.
  • Take Java desktop screenshots from the monitor that contains the CRM window, instead of the shared desktop capture path.
  • For PowerBuilder active-window screenshots, capture the foreground window when it belongs to the same process.

Test plan

  • Run a Java flow with a desktop screenshot and confirm the image is the monitor that contains the CRM window.
  • Fail an action that has embedded child panels and confirm those panels are left out of the failure screenshots while real pop-ups remain.
  • Take a PowerBuilder screenshot with Only Active Window while a same-process foreground window is open and confirm that window is captured.
  • Confirm non-Java drivers still use the shared desktop screenshot path.

Made with Cursor

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Desktop screenshots for Java applications now capture the full screen containing the application window. If the window cannot be found, the screenshot action reports an error.
    • Screenshots can skip embedded child windows that should not be captured as dialogs or separate windows.
    • “Only Active Window” screenshots for PowerBuilder now use a valid foreground window from the same process when available, and fall back to the current window if it cannot be resolved.
    • Failed Java desktop-screen captures retain the requested capture mode.

Skip embedded child windows in failure shots, and capture the Java desktop from the monitor that contains the CRM window.

- Around line 2005-2007: Update the Java desktop capture exception handler
around CopyFromScreen to set actScreenShot.Error with the capture failure
message instead of storing it only in ExInfo, so the engine reports the error
when no screenshot is copied.

- Around line 2326-2328: Update the failed-action screenshot handling around
`javaDesktopScreen` in the execution flow so a Java DesktopScreen action falls
back to host desktop capture when the Java agent screenshot returns an error.
Preserve the existing agent screenshot request and the current capture behavior
for other failed actions.

Walkthrough

Screenshot capture now skips embedded Win32 child windows in UI Automation results, captures the full containing screen for Java desktop screenshots, and can select an eligible foreground window for PowerBuilder active-window screenshots. Java desktop captures use a distinct execution-engine path.

Disambiguate the CRM window before capturing its monitor.

The desktop screenshot selects the first root child whose name matches the Java-reported title. If another top-level window has the same title and is enumerated first, the code captures that window's monitor. The change also replaces the single-window capture with a full-monitor capture, so unrelated windows on that monitor appear in the screenshot. Identify the CRM window by a unique identity, such as its handle or process ID, before selecting the monitor.

Keep the shared desktop capture when the Java agent host is not local.

For a remote JavaAgentHost, the new branch skips TakeDesktopScreenShotIntoAction. JavaDriver.TakeScreenShots then searches for the CRM window on the Ginger host. The window is not found there, so no screenshot is stored. Before this change, a desktop image was stored. Use the shared desktop capture when the agent host is not local.

5971-5974: Minor · Potential issue · Poor tradeoff

Unverified finding
We couldn't verify this from the code. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

The helper assumes every real pop-up is top-level. A genuine dialog implemented as a WS_CHILD window will instead be classified as an embedded panel and excluded.

Failure screenshots omit the dialog's contents as a separate screenshot.

This can occur when: An application displays a meaningful in-window dialog whose Win32 window has WS_CHILD and appears among the selected app window's UI Automation descendants.

Ginger/GingerCore/Drivers/JavaDriverLib/JavaDriver.cs-1998-2000: 1

1998-2000: Minor · Potential issue · Low value

Unverified finding
We couldn't verify this from the code. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Screen.FromHandle now relies on the matched UI Automation element having a usable native HWND; a title-matched element with NativeWindowHandle zero may select the default screen instead of the screen containing the window.

DesktopScreen records the default monitor rather than the Java application's monitor.

This can occur when: The Java window is represented by a UI Automation element whose NativeWindowHandle is zero, on a non-default monitor.

Set Error when the Java desktop capture throws.

On a Java desktop capture, a CopyFromScreen failure sets only ExInfo. The engine copies screenshots only when Error is empty and never copies ExInfo. The action then finishes with no screenshot and no error message.

Suggested fix
-                            actScreenShot.ExInfo += "Error capturing desktop screen" + e.Message;
+                            actScreenShot.Error = "Error capturing desktop screen. " + e.Message;

Keep a host desktop fallback for failed Java DesktopScreen actions.

A failed Java DesktopScreen action now sends only the agent screenshot request. If the CRM window title lookup fails, JavaDriver.TakeScreenShots sets Error, and no failure screenshot is attached. The base code took a host desktop screenshot for this action. Restore that capture when the Java agent screenshot returns an error.

Review comment at @Ginger/GingerCoreNET/Run/GingerExecutionEngine.cs around
lines 2326 - 2328:
Update the failed-action screenshot handling around `javaDesktopScreen` in the
execution flow so a Java DesktopScreen action falls back to host desktop capture
when the Java agent screenshot returns an error. Preserve the existing agent
screenshot request and the current capture behavior for other failed actions.
