Store the video of the tests if the path is defined

[moylop260]

Odoo has the following configuration parameter:

• https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/26c6997d8de5679307485cd8efb6b2ce5662f34c/odoo/tests/common.py#L839-L845

~/odoo/odoo/odoo-bin --help |grep screen
--screencasts=DIR Screencasts will go in DIR/{db_name}/screencasts.
--screenshots=DIR Screenshots will go in DIR/{db_name}/screenshots.

If the parameter screencasts is defined so selenium should enable to record a video and stored in the path

IMHO we could get something similar with screenshots but not sure if it could be auto-enabled after each step but we can discuss from another MR/issue

I propose a decorator, can look like this:

def screenshot_if_fail(func):
    def wrapper(self):
        try:
            func(self)
        except WebDriverException as ex:
            path = Path(environ.get("SELENIUM_SCREENSHOTS", "/home/odoo")) / f"{func.__name__}-{int(time())}.png"
            _logger.info("Saving screenshot for failed test: %s", path)
            self.driver.get_screenshot_as_file(path)
            raise ex

    return wrapper

And can be used as:

@screenshot_if_fail
def test_something(self):
    ...

This would work just for taking a screenshot when tests fails which is already very useful, to make something like a video the decorator would probably need to run concurrently and periodically take screenshots, if WebDriver supports multi-threading, it may work.
