cypress-image-diff-html-report

Overview

A HTML reporting module for Cypress-Image-Diff to parse the JSON output into a beautiful report

Update baseline screenshots

Support different screenshot inspectors

Provide with light/dark/system default theme

Installation

Make sure you install Cypress and cypress-image-diff prior to this report installation.

npm install -D cypress-image-diff-html-report

Project setup

Once you've installed the package, you are good to go without any further configuration. However, you can create a configuration file if you do want more custom configurations. cypress-image-diff-html-report will look for the cypress-image-diff-html-report.config.js file under the root of your project.

You can use the defineConfig helper which provides intellisense:

import { defineConfig } from 'cypress-image-diff-html-report'

export default defineConfig({
  // config options
})

If you’d like to specify a different config filename than the default, use the --configFile command line option.

See all available configurations here.

CLI

This is the most common way to use cypress-image-diff-html-report. It supports two commands: generate and start.

generate: generates the HTML report and writes to disk wherever it's designated.
```
cypress-image-diff-html-report generate [options]
```
start: starts a local server, which will serve the HTML report on the fly. You don't need to run generate before this command if you don't want to write the HTML report to your disk.
```
cypress-image-diff-html-report start [options]
```

See all available CLI options here.

API

cypress-image-diff-html-report can be used to programmatically generate reports or start a local server. Whichever option is available via CLI is also available in the API. It is useful to use the API if you need more flexibility or to integrate with other third parties.

generate:

import { generate } from 'cypress-image-diff-html-report'

;(async () => {
  await generate({
    configFile: 'custom.config.js',
    // ...
  })
})()

start:

import { start } from 'cypress-image-diff-html-report'

;(async () => {
  await start({
    configFile: 'custom.config.js',
    serverPort: 3000
    // ...
  })
})()

See all available API options here.

Example integration

Run generate as soon as all the tests are executed.

// package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "test:e2e": "cypress run --headless && cypress-image-diff-html-report generate --configFile my-visual-html-report.config.js"
  }
}

Often times you want to serve the HTML report locally to perform snapshot update features. Run the start command when the json report is in place:

cypress-image-diff-html-report start --configFile my-visual-html-report.config.js
