You can include it in your test. Here is an example for C#. To make this work, you need to install Microsoft Expression Encoder and add the reference to your project

using Microsoft.Expression.Encoder.ScreenCapture;

    string timestamp = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy-hh-mm-ss");
    ScreenCaptureJob vidrec = new ScreenCaptureJob();
    vidrec.OutputScreenCaptureFileName = @"C:/yourPathToSaveFile/yourFilename " + timestamp + ".wmv";
    vidrec.Start();

// your test

vidrec.Stop();
