    $ cd visual-testing
    $ pnpm install

Testing

Several tests need to be executed to be able to test the module. When adding a PR all tests must at least pass the local tests. Each PR is automatically tested against Sauce Labs, see our GitHub Actions pipeline. Before approving a PR the core contributors will test the PR against emulators/simulators / real devices.

Local Testing

First, a local baseline needs to be created. This can be done with:

// With the webdriver protocol
$ npm run test.local.init

This command will create a folder called localBaseline that will hold all the baseline images.

Then run:

// With the webdriver protocol
npm run test.local.desktop

This will run all tests on a local machine on Chrome.

CI testing with Sauce Labs (not needed for a PR)

The command below is used to test the build on GitHub Actions, it can only be used there and not for local development.

$ npm run test.saucelabs

It will test against a lot of configurations that can be found here. All PRs are automatically checked against Sauce Labs.
