Visual Testing

A bug is is still a bug, even if your assertions pass

A missing button, a broken layout, a font that didn't load: none of that fails a DOM assertion, but it's still broken. Visual regressions cost you revenue and user trust whether or not your test suite catches them, and on any browser or device your customer happens to be using.

Catch Bugs Humans See

DOM assertions only check what you thought to test. Visual AI compares what actually renders, so a broken layout, missing button, or wrong font gets caught even when every functional test passes.

Increase Test Coverage

Run the same visual check across hundreds of browser and device combinations at once with the Ultrafast Grid. You get full cross-browser coverage without maintaining a local device lab.

Ignore The Noise

Pixel-by-pixel tools flag every anti-aliasing shift and rendering quirk as a failure. Visual AI ignores what doesn't matter and flags only the changes a person would actually notice.

Where Visual AI Pays Off, From First Commit To Production

Find those hard-to-catch bugs in your UI

Compare what renders, not what's coded Visual AI checks the pixels a user actually sees, so a broken layout, overlapping button, or missing font gets flagged even when the DOM looks fine.

Cover every browser and device at once The Ultrafast Grid renders your app across hundreds of browser and device combinations in parallel, so nothing ships untested because a lab didn't have that config.

Write Less Code

One snapshot replaces hundreds of assertions A single eyes.checkWindow() call validates an entire screen, so you stop writing a check for every button, label, and image individually.

Skip the locator maintenance Visual AI finds elements by what they look like, not by a CSS selector, so a class name change doesn't send you back into the test file.

Limit Manual Maintenance & False Positives

Ignore the noise that doesn't matter Anti-aliasing, font rendering, and sub-pixel shifts get filtered out automatically, so a passing test actually means the UI is fine.

Update every related baseline at once When a change is intentional, group similar diffs across browsers and resolutions and approve them together instead of one at a time.

Involve More Of The Team

Catch issues before code review Test Storybook components as they're built, so design feedback happens before a page ships, not after a bug report.

Give non-engineers a way in Record a flow or write in plain English, so QA and design can add coverage without waiting on an engineer to write it for them.

What Visual AI catches that your test suite doesn't

1

Replicate The Human Eye

See your application exactly as your customers do. Applitools compares baseline and checkpoint images with the accuracy of a human reviewer, at a speed no person could match.

2

Automatic Locator Tracking

DOM locators break the moment a class name changes. Applitools finds elements using visual and semantic clues instead, so your tests survive changes that would otherwise need a rewrite.

3

Localization Testing

Validate every language and region without writing a separate assertion for each one. The Layout match level ignores translated text length and flags only real layout breaks.

4

Spot Real Differences

Mark the regions you want to ignore, like ads or timestamps, so dynamic content doesn't generate a false positive every run.

5

Integrate Into Your CI/CD

Applitools plugs into your functional test framework, your Git workflow, and your CI/CD pipeline, so visual checks run exactly where your other tests already do.

6

Root Cause Analysis

Click a diff and see the exact DOM and CSS change that caused it, so a failure comes with an answer, not just a red X.
