# Configure Open Broadcaster Software for AIQ Test Evidence

Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) can be used to capture video evidence while AIQ tests run. Use it when a team needs visual proof of application behavior, playback issues, or environment-specific failures.

## Setup guidance

- Install a supported OBS version on the machine where the browser, desktop app, or device stream is visible.
- Create a dedicated scene for AIQ evidence capture and include only the required window, display, or device feed.
- Set the output path to a location with enough disk space for the planned run duration.
- Use a recording format that can be recovered if the session stops unexpectedly.
- Mask or avoid capturing credentials, customer data, and unrelated desktop content.

## Validation workflow

1. Start a short recording before the AIQ run.
2. Run a small scenario and confirm the video shows the relevant application state.
3. Check audio, resolution, timestamps, and file size.
4. Attach or reference the recording with the related execution evidence.
