Summary

This article explains how to integrate automated visual testing into existing Selenium tests using Applitools Eyes. The goal is to add a layer of visual checks to the test, ensuring that the application's UI matches expectations across different browsers and platforms. By leveraging Applitools Eyes, developers can easily capture screenshots and perform visual checks at specific points in the test workflow. The article provides an example of how to modify an existing Selenium test to include these visual checks, using Java as the programming language. It also discusses how to run the test against other browsers and operating systems using Sauce Labs, a cloud-based platform for cross-browser testing. The expected outcome is that the test will execute successfully, performing visual checks at specified points and returning URLs to failed jobs in either Applitools Eyes or Sauce Labs.
