How To Save An Image By Selecting "save Image As..." In A Context Menu Using Selenium Webdriver (python)

I'm trying to use selenium webdriver to save a specific image to a directory. I was looking to do this by simulating a right click on the img element and selecting 'save image as..

Solution 1:

If it's a captcha you're after, you're probably better off just taking a screenshot.

driver.save_screenshot('screenshot.png')

Solution 2:

I was having the similar problem and just now got a shortcut to save a image by using save as---

Step-1-right click on an image you wish to save
Step-2- press v. 
Step-3-Enter to the directory window to save 

Since i am a java programmer thats why i was not able to paste a code accordingly( question asked for python).

Solution 3:

As suggested by kreativitea, a screenshot would be the way to go because CAPTCHA's were designed to prevent scripts from doing what you're trying to do. CAPTCHA's are meant to prevent session re-use. Here is a page describing session re-use.
