Running on sauce will provide video recordings :

Flaky gem for ruby based tests provides this :

For others i believe you have to search for environment based (client language) solutions.
Here is a few that can give you an idea how to do it on your own :

I built this CLI to assist my tests but hopefully it useful for others. It's language-agnostic and should work with any framework capable of making a system call.
