Discovery Questions

Before implementing visual testing, gather context. Check .agents/qa-project-context.md first -- if it exists, use it and skip questions already answered there.

Tool Selection

• Playwright built-in or dedicated tool? Playwright's toHaveScreenshot is free and requires no external service. Dedicated tools (Chromatic, Percy, Argos) add review workflows, browser rendering farms, and historical tracking. Choose based on team size and review needs.
• Storybook in the project? If yes, Chromatic is the natural fit -- it captures every story as a visual test. If no Storybook, Playwright or Percy are better options.
• CI platform? Visual testing generates large artifacts (screenshots, diffs). Ensure CI has storage and the pipeline can handle the extra time.
