karma-image-snapshot v0.1.0

karma-image-snapshot

Jasmine matcher that performs image comparisons based on jest-image-snapshot for visual regression testing

How to use

/** karma.config.js*/
module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    frameworks: [/*✅*/'snapshot-jasmine', 'jasmine'],
    /*...*/
    snapshot: {
      customSnapshotsDir: require('path').resolve(__dirname, '__image_snapshots__')
    },
    browsers: [/*✅*/'SnapshotLauncher' /* or SnapshotHeadlessLauncher*/]
  });
};

If you want to automatically remove outdated snapshots you should add special reporter

/** karma.config.js*/
module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    /*...*/
    reporters: [/*...*/, /*✅*/'outdated-snapshot']
  });
};

Now you can use window.screenshot, window.setViewport functions and asynchronous jasmine matcher toMatchImageSnapshot in your tests

/** example.e2e.js*/
it('should compare image snapshots', async function() {
  /*...*/
  const image = await window.screenshot();
  await expectAsync(image).toMatchImageSnapshot();
});

Working configuration and test example you can find in test directory

API

Available properties for snapshot and toMatchImageSnapshot you can look here

Browser flags & options

You can tune browser settings through flags & options

/** karma.config.js*/
module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    /*...*/
    customLaunchers: {
      Chrome: {
        base: 'SnapshotLauncher',
        options: /*✅*/{
          devtools: true
        },
        flags: [/*✅*/'--font-render-hinting=none', '--no-sandbox']
      }
    }
  });
};

Playwright

You can use playwright instead of puppeteer

/** karma.config.js*/
module.exports = function(config) {
  config.set({
    /*...*/
    customLaunchers: {
      Firefox: {
        base: 'SnapshotLauncher',
        browserType: require('playwright').firefox
      }
    }
  });
};
