Hands-On Automated Testing with Playwright
By :
Visual regression testing is an essential layer of quality assurance that helps ensure your application’s UI stays consistent and reliable even as the code evolves. With Playwright’s built-in tools, capturing and comparing screenshots becomes a straightforward process, whether you’re testing an entire page or a single element.
In this chapter, you learned how to take and compare screenshots, manage acceptable visual differences, and automate these tests within a CI/CD pipeline. By combining these practices with thoughtful test design and stable environments, you can confidently catch unintended UI changes before they reach your users.
As you continue building modern, visually rich applications, visual testing will become a key part of your toolkit, which helps you ship changes faster, with fewer surprises.
In the next chapter, we’ll focus on testing mobile web experiences by simulating devices and handling responsive designs.
