Chromatic introduces a feature that integrates automated visual testing into Playwright's end-to-end (E2E) tests.
This new capability allows developers to verify both the functionality and appearance of user interfaces with less code and maintenance.
Visual tests add an additional layer to the testing strategy, capturing pixel-perfect snapshots and comparing them against baselines to identify UI appearance bugs.
The integration process is simple, requiring a change of just one line of code, and visual tests are managed within the existing Playwright E2E test suite.
Chromatic is currently ready for a pilot program, offering early access and potential free usage for qualifying companies.

Chromatic is a visual testing and review platform that helps teams to ship flawless user interfaces with less work involved. It allows simultaneous visual and functional testing across different browsers, themes, and viewports, maintaining expansive coverage without extra effort. By automating the scanning of all possible UI states, Chromatic ensures that regressions are identified swiftly. It acts as a collaborative workspace for design and product teams, offering a unified source for UI components, tests, and documents. Integrating quickly with existing CI/CD pipelines, Chromatic enhances the development process with Storybook, providing pre-configured best practices along with customizable options.
