Summary
When
before_setup
fails, for example with fixture errors, the failure is stored,setup
is skipped, andtake_failed_screenshot
is called. Taking a screenshot triggers starting the server which will probably fail since fixtures are not properly loaded. This generates another failure and makes it harder to debug the fixture failure.If the server was not already started, it makes no sense to take a screenshot since it is not relevant.
This commit skips taking a failure screenshot if no browser session has been started.
Other Information
Tested with Rails 6.1.4.1.
