The recent addition of images in comments for test executions is very welcome, but it seems we can’t view full sized versions of the images in those comments without manually right-clicking each image and opening them in a new tab. This is an issue for us when we are reviewing the test execution to ensure it was done correctly, especially when the images are a screenshot of a full screen. Would it be possible to add the ability to open a full sized view of an image in a comment by clicking it?

3Hi Ben,
Thank you for your feedback!
This is a really good idea and should be pretty easy to implement, so we will schedule this for one of our next updates.
Best regards,
Alex
This feature is now available, i.e. when clicking on an image in the editor, the image opens full-size in a new browser tab.
See the release announcement here.

We now added a lightbox, so when clicking an image, it opens maximized in an overlay within the same tab.
See Testiny v1.20
Best regards,

Is there anyway to view the full size images without leaving the test case? When reviewing large amount of test cases, each with multiple images as test results, opening the images in a new tab is more time consuming and more prone to errors as the images are not enclosed within the test case anymore.
– Gunnar_JohnsYou mean in some kind of full-screen overlay? How is that different to a new tab? The overlay has the downside that you cannot see the test case then while you can move the tab anywhere on your screen (or to another monitor)...
– Alex_HoislIn this case, there's two pain points here. The first is the disconnect between which image a case relates to when opened in a new tab. This is an issue when multiple test cases or even a single case with many steps are being review, and causes a great deal of confusion. The second issue is that it takes longer to deal with closing a new tab compared to using a lightbox within a page. While not much in a single instance, this builds up after reviewing 100s images across dozens of tests. Alternatively, allowing the image to respect the zoom level on a page would help.
– Ben_GruberUnderstood, I'll see what we can do :-)
– Alex_HoislI'm happy to tell you that we were able to quickly implement a lightbox-effect for images, both in editor text, comments and attachments. This update will be shipped with the upcoming feature release.
