screenshots not coming with unique name from 3.7.0 #5065
Description
I am using codeceptjs 3.7.3 with Playwright along with mochawesome
While getting screenshot(default) at the failure, it takes the screenshot and name it with scenario name.failed.png. But I am using data table to execute the same scenario with multiple states. while there are many failures, screenshots come with same name and gets replaced.
When executing same scenario for 10 different states using datatable and if 8 of them failed, I get only one screen shot because of the same name. Is there any workaround or fix for this?

It should be fixed in a next version. I'm using 3.7.3 with a patch from that PR (patched in my environment).

@mirao , Does it need any change in config. I tried using 3.7.4 but still I am not getting unique screen shots.
