Automation Screenshooting

Is Screenshooting becoming costly and tiresome? Automate It!

Traditional screen shooting is a time exhaustive and logistically challenging task. To begin with it needs to be carried out as late as possible in the software localization cycle to ensure that linguistically stable software builds are used. Also, it is typically on the critical path of any localization project - localized documentation and collateral cannot be completed until the screen shooting is done. And in case we forget, it can be a very expensive exercise.

So what is it and how can speaking to VistaTEC make it better and more efficient?

Screen shots, or screen captures as they are sometimes referred to, are images containing user interface components of an application or operating system. Common examples would include dialog boxes or menus. They are commonly used in product documentation, online help, product packaging as well as marketing collateral.

What is important is accurate and consistent screen capture for each localized version of your product. Screen shots are not just any old marketing material, they aren’t just pages of text about how your product works, they are your product! It’s what your customer will expect to see when they use your products or applications.

While most organizations will concede that automating this process is exactly what they need to ensure consistency across all localized versions of their product and reducing their time to market, many simply remain doing it the same old way, prone to human error, and subjecting themselves to excessive cost and scheduling problems.
