# Screenshots

You can use screenshots to debug your tests and understand what was the reason for the failure. 

When a test step is executed, **BugBug automatically takes screenshots**:

* of the whole window
* of the individual element

BugBug also keeps the screenshots history, so that you can also compare screenshots from previous runs. Just go to the ["Runs history" tab](https://docs.bugbug.io/debugging-tests/runs-history).
