Visual regression bugs are sneaky. A CSS change in one component can break layouts across your entire site. Here's how to catch them automatically.
Step 1: Create Your Baseline
Navigate to Visual Regression in QAProof and add your first URL. We'll capture a screenshot and save it as your baseline. This is what future screenshots will be compared against.
Step 2: Set Your Schedule
Choose how often to run checks:
- Daily - for production sites with frequent updates
- Weekly - for stable sites with occasional changes
- Monthly - for archived or legacy sites
- On-demand - manual triggers via API or dashboard
Step 3: Configure Alerts
Set your notification preferences. Get email alerts when visual differences are detected, or only when scores drop below your threshold.
Step 4: Review Changes
When differences are detected, review them in the dashboard. Approve legitimate changes to update the baseline, or investigate unexpected differences.
That's it! You're now monitoring for visual regressions 24/7.
