Foxtrot has the capability to allow a user to provide a response in the form of a Prompt or Question. In the case of a Question, if necessary, it may also be beneficial to include an image. This image can be something already on the machine, or something that the Foxtrot may collect at any time within your script. The Screenshot Action will capture an image of the target and save it to a file location of your choosing. By displaying the image as part of a Question Action, the user will be able to select an answer to the question based on the image, and then have Foxtrot make a decision based on the answer provided.
