How to use

You can write a TestCafe test with automated visual testing like this.

import { visualCheck } from 'visual-check-testcafe';

fixture `TestCafe tests with Visual compare`
    .page `http://example.com`;

test('Automated visual testing', async t => {
  await visualCheck(t, options);
});

Reporting

Report will be located at .reports/visual-check-testcafe/report.html

Options

visualCheck(t, options?)

• options.label — Custom name for the taken snapshot
• options.timeout — Waiting time before taking snapshots
• options.selector — String, or Selector() to match on the DOM
• options.maxDiffPercentage— Default is 0.1

Setup

Each time you run tests with --setup-baseline it'll take the base screenshots. It will report during test in the following way:

visual-check-testcafe: Baseline {path} created

During a test run it can occur a baseline is not there. If you haven't provided the --setup-baseline your test will fail with the following message:

AssertionError: visual-check-testcafe: no baseline present, storing baseline for next run: expected 'no baseline' to be falsy
      
      + expected - actual
      
      -'no baseline'
      +undefined

RoadMap

• Add configurable output folder
• Add custom typings for testcontroller testRun
• Add automated tests
