Summary A DelegatingHandler that captures HTTP responses and saves them as snapshot files.
This handler passes requests through to the actual endpoint, then captures the response
and saves it as a snapshot file. This enables recording real API responses for later
replay during testing.
Use this handler during an initial recording phase to capture responses from third-party
APIs, then use ResponseSnapshotReplayHandler to replay those responses
during test execution without hitting live endpoints.
Examples // Create a handler that captures responses to snapshot files var innerHandler = new HttpClientHandler (); var captureHandler = new ResponseSnapshotCaptureHandler ( "TestData/Snapshots" ) { InnerHandler = innerHandler }; var client = new HttpClient ( captureHandler ); // Requests go to the real endpoint, responses are saved as snapshots var response = await client . GetAsync ( "https://api.example.com/users" );
Constructors Creates a new ResponseSnapshotCaptureHandler that saves response snapshots to the specified path.
