Description

Prework

Proposal

It would be really great to have the possibility to store the HTML generated by validation.get_tabular_report() to a folder, as depending on limitations in the software installed, one cannot generate the screenshot using selenium as the following error would appear (if external Drivers cannot be installed):

NoSuchDriverException: Message: Unable to obtain driver for chrome

An ideal solution would be similar to the R implementation, using export_tabular_report, or adding an argument to get_tabular_report(location: str|None=None) to the existing method.
