Testing is important: You probably already know that and so you do it yourself - or your dear testers do, at least. But as your project grows, this becomes more and more tedious - each of your changes can break something in your project without you noticing it. But chasing these side-effects with a checklist after every merge is no solution either. However, end-to-end tests only do what you tell them to do - so they don't look left or right. For example, styling errors can go unnoticed.So what now? Visual testing compares the appearance of your application with a previous state. If changes become visible, you can react to them.

Let's take a look at my journey together and explore if and how visual testing can help in your projects as well.
