vedro-screenshot-matcher 0.1.0

Playwright plugin for matching screenshots with Vedro Testing Framework

Vedro Screenshot Matcher

The screenshot_matcher is a powerful tool designed for developers and testers to visually compare two versions of an application. By contrasting a production version (known as "golden") with a development version (referred to as "test"), spotting visual inconsistencies becomes more straightforward.

Integrated seamlessly with the vedro testing framework, it aids in performing visual regression tests with ease.

Installation

1. Install the Plugin

    vedro plugin install vedro_screenshot_matcher
   

2. Configure the Plugin In your vedro.cfg.py:

    import vedro
    import screenshot_matcher
    
    class Config(vedro.Config):
        class Plugins(vedro.Config.Plugins):
            class ScreenshotMatcher(screenshot_matcher.ScreenshotMatcher):
                test_app_url = "http://localhost"
                golden_app_url = "http://golden-app.com"
   

Make sure to provide the correct test_app_url and golden_app_url in the configuration.

Quick Start

Suppose you have a basic test as below:

import vedro
from contexts import opened_index_page

class Scenario(vedro.Scenario):
    subject = "share page"

    def given_opened_page(self):
        self.page = opened_index_page()

    def when_user_click_on_share(self):
        self.page.get_by_text("Share").click()

    def then_it_should_show_share_popup(self):
        share_popup = self.page.locator(".share-popup .title")
        assert share_popup.text_content() == "Share Page"

The context that opens the index page:

import vedro
import playwright
from os import environ

@vedro.context
async def opened_index_page():
    browser = await playwright.chromium.launch()
    page = await browser.new_page()

    await page.goto(environ["APP_URL"])

    return page

To implement a screenshot assertion:

1. Add the @screenshot_asserts decorator at the beginning of the scenario

2. Include the match_screenshot assertion where needed import vedro from screenshot_matcher import screenshot_asserts, match_screenshot

   @screenshot_asserts() # Step 1: Add decorator class Scenario(vedro.Scenario): subject = "share page"

    def given_opened_page(self):
        self.page = opened_index_page()
   
    def when_user_click_on_share(self):
        self.page.get_by_text("Share").click()
   
    def then_it_should_show_share_popup(self):
        share_popup = self.page.locator(".share-popup .title")
        assert share_popup.text_content() == "Share Page"
        assert match_screenshot(share_popup)  # Step 2: Add screenshot assertion
   

By following these steps, the plugin will:

1. Execute the test using APP_URL set to your golden_app_url
2. Capture a screenshot, storing it as the expected outcome
3. Run the test again with APP_URL set to your test_app_url
4. Finally, it will compare the new screenshot with the previously saved one
