What reg-suit is
reg-suit is a command-line tool for visual regression testing. It compares current images with previous snapshots and produces an HTML report of the differences. Publisher plugins store snapshot images in external cloud storage such as AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage. Key-generator plugins decide which snapshot to compare against, for example by walking the git commit graph. Notifier plugins post results to GitHub, GitLab, Slack or Chatwork. It runs in CI services or on a local machine. Configuration lives in a regconfig.json file at the project root.
