# Visual Regression Tester

Catch unintended UI changes with automated visual regression testing.

## Core Workflow

1. **Choose tool**: Playwright, Chromatic, Percy
2. **Setup baseline**: Capture initial screenshots
3. **Configure thresholds**: Define acceptable diff
4. **Integrate CI**: Automated testing
5. **Review changes**: Approve or reject
6. **Update baselines**: Accept intentional changes

## Playwright Visual Testing

### Installation

```bash
npm install -D @playwright/test
npx playwright install
```

### Configuration

```typescript
// playwright.config.ts
import { defineConfig, devices } from '@playwright/test';

export default defineConfig({
  testDir: './tests/visual',
  testMatch: '**/*.visual.ts',
  fullyParallel: true,
  forbidOnly: !!process.env.CI,
  retries: process.env.CI ? 2 : 0,
  workers: process.env.CI ? 1 : undefined,
  reporter: [
    ['html', { open: 'never' }],
    ['json', { outputFile: 'test-results/results.json' }],
  ],

  // Snapshot configuration
  snapshotDir: './tests/visual/__snapshots__',
  snapshotPathTemplate: '{snapshotDir}/{testFilePath}/{arg}{ext}',

  expect: {
    toHaveScreenshot: {
      maxDiffPixels: 100,
      maxDiffPixelRatio: 0.01,
      threshold: 0.2,
      animations: 'disabled',
    },
    toMatchSnapshot: {
      maxDiffPixelRatio: 0.01,
    },
  },

  use: {
    baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000',
    trace: 'on-first-retry',
    screenshot: 'only-on-failure',
    video: 'retain-on-failure',
  },

  projects: [
    {
      name: 'Desktop Chrome',
      use: {
        ...devices['Desktop Chrome'],
        viewport: { width: 1280, height: 720 },
      },
    },
    {
      name: 'Desktop Firefox',
      use: {
        ...devices['Desktop Firefox'],
        viewport: { width: 1280, height: 720 },
      },
    },
    {
      name: 'Mobile Safari',
      use: {
        ...devices['iPhone 13'],
      },
    },
    {
      name: 'Tablet',
      use: {
        viewport: { width: 768, height: 1024 },
      },
    },
  ],

  webServer: {

});
```

### Visual Test Examples

```typescript
// tests/visual/homepage.visual.ts
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test.describe('Homepage Visual Tests', () => {
  test.beforeEach(async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');
    // Wait for fonts and images to load
    await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
    // Disable animations for consistent screenshots
    await page.addStyleTag({
      content: `
        *, *::before, *::after {
          animation-duration: 0s !important;
          animation-delay: 0s !important;
          transition-duration: 0s !important;
        }
      `,
    });
  });

  test('full page screenshot', async ({ page }) => {
    await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot('homepage-full.png', {
      fullPage: true,
    });
  });

  test('hero section', async ({ page }) => {
    const hero = page.locator('[data-testid="hero-section"]');
    await expect(hero).toHaveScreenshot('hero-section.png');
  });

  test('navigation bar', async ({ page }) => {
    const nav = page.locator('nav');
    await expect(nav).toHaveScreenshot('navigation.png');
  });

  test('footer', async ({ page }) => {
    const footer = page.locator('footer');
    await footer.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded();
    await expect(footer).toHaveScreenshot('footer.png');
  });
});
```

### Component Visual Tests

```typescript
// tests/visual/components.visual.ts
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test.describe('Button Component', () => {
  test('all variants', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/storybook/button');

    // Primary button
    const primary = page.locator('[data-testid="button-primary"]');
    await expect(primary).toHaveScreenshot('button-primary.png');

    // Secondary button
    const secondary = page.locator('[data-testid="button-secondary"]');
    await expect(secondary).toHaveScreenshot('button-secondary.png');

    // Hover state
    await primary.hover();
    await expect(primary).toHaveScreenshot('button-primary-hover.png');

    // Focus state
    await primary.focus();
    await expect(primary).toHaveScreenshot('button-primary-focus.png');

    await expect(input).toHaveScreenshot('input-default.png');

    // Focused state
    await input.focus();
    await expect(input).toHaveScreenshot('input-focused.png');

    // With value
    await input.fill('Test value');
    await expect(input).toHaveScreenshot('input-with-value.png');

    // Error state
    const errorInput = page.locator('[data-testid="input-error"]');
    await expect(errorInput).toHaveScreenshot('input-error.png');
  });
});
```

### Responsive Testing

```typescript
// tests/visual/responsive.visual.ts
import { test, expect, devices } from '@playwright/test';

const viewports = [
  { name: 'mobile', width: 375, height: 667 },
  { name: 'tablet', width: 768, height: 1024 },
  { name: 'desktop', width: 1280, height: 720 },
  { name: 'wide', width: 1920, height: 1080 },
];

for (const viewport of viewports) {
  test.describe(`${viewport.name} viewport`, () => {
    test.use({ viewport: { width: viewport.width, height: viewport.height } });

    test('homepage layout', async ({ page }) => {
      await page.goto('/');
      await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');

      await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot(`homepage-${viewport.name}.png`, {
        fullPage: true,
      });
    });

    test('navigation menu', async ({ page }) => {
      await page.goto('/');

      if (viewport.width < 768) {
        // Mobile: test hamburger menu
        const menuButton = page.locator('[data-testid="mobile-menu-button"]');
        await menuButton.click();
        await expect(page.locator('[data-testid="mobile-menu"]')).toHaveScreenshot(
          `mobile-menu-${viewport.name}.png`
        );
      } else {
        // Desktop: test full nav
        await expect(page.locator('nav')).toHaveScreenshot(
          `nav-${viewport.name}.png`
        );
      }
    });
  });
}
```

### Dark Mode Testing

```typescript
// tests/visual/dark-mode.visual.ts
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test.describe('Dark Mode', () => {
  test('homepage in dark mode', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');

    // Enable dark mode via color scheme
    await page.emulateMedia({ colorScheme: 'dark' });

    await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot('homepage-dark.png', {
      fullPage: true,
    });
  });

  test('homepage in light mode', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');

    await page.emulateMedia({ colorScheme: 'light' });

    await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot('homepage-light.png', {
      fullPage: true,
    });
  });

  test('theme toggle', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');

    // Toggle theme via button
    const themeToggle = page.locator('[data-testid="theme-toggle"]');
    await themeToggle.click();

    // Wait for transition
    await page.waitForTimeout(300);

    await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot('homepage-toggled-theme.png');
  });
});
```

  parameters: {
    chromatic: {
      // Capture multiple viewports
      viewports: [375, 768, 1280],

      delay: 300,
      // Disable animations
      pauseAnimationAtEnd: true,
    },
  },
};

export default meta;

export const Primary: StoryObj<typeof Button> = {
  args: { variant: 'primary', children: 'Button' },
};

export const AllStates: StoryObj<typeof Button> = {

          retention-days: 7
```

### Update Baselines Script

```json
// package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "test:visual": "playwright test --project='Desktop Chrome'",
    "test:visual:update": "playwright test --update-snapshots",
    "test:visual:ui": "playwright test --ui",
    "test:visual:report": "playwright show-report"
  }
}
```

## Best Practices

1. **Disable animations**: Consistent screenshots
2. **Wait for network**: Ensure content loaded
3. **Use stable selectors**: data-testid attributes
4. **Test multiple viewports**: Responsive coverage
5. **Set thresholds**: Allow minor pixel differences
6. **Review in CI**: Block merges on failures
7. **Organize snapshots**: Clear naming convention
8. **Update intentionally**: Review all baseline changes
