August Ash Backstop JS VRT Tool
===============================

[](#august-ash-backstop-js-vrt-tool)

This tool will use a globally installed version of Backstop to run Visual Regression Testing on your machine using a local url and comparing to a live url.

---

To properly run this tool you will need to ensure you are on Node Version 16 or higher and first install Backstop JS globally. `npm install -g backstopjs`

Setup and Use
-------------

[](#setup-and-use)

1. `cd` into your project root
2. create a new directory called "tests" - `mkdir tests`
3. `cd` into the new "tests" directory - `cd tests`
4. Run `backstop init` to initialze backstop on this project
5. Return to the root of your project.
6. Ensure this package is installed with a `composer require augustash/backstop-js`
7. Run `composer backstop-setup` from the root of your project and input your local and live urls when prompted
8. `cd` back to the tests directory - `cd tests`
9. Create a reference point for backstop to check against - `backstop reference`
10. Run a test on your site once changes are made - `backstop test`
