What you will learn
- Screenshot assertions catch layout and style regressions unit tests miss.
- Stable environments and masked dynamic content prevent false failures.
- Review image diffs like code.
When the code is right but the page is wrong
A CSS change in one component shifts a button off-screen on another page. Every test passes, because no test looks at the page. Visual regression tests compare screenshots with approved baselines and flag pixel differences.
Playwright has this built in with toHaveScreenshot, so there is no extra service to set up.
