Hello @Sradha, You can use the File screenshotFile = (((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE)); to create a screenshot of the browser.

Here is the code that I am using hope you find it useful.

       System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\priyj_kumar\\Downloads\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.amazon.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("twotabsearchtextbox")).sendKeys("Headphone",Keys.ENTER);
File screenshotFile = (((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE));
FileUtils.copyFile(screenshotFile, new File("C:\\Users\\priyj_kumar\\Downloads\\screenshot.png"));

Hope this helps.
