FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Percy alternative is best for visual regression testing?

Vizzly is the better fit when you want visual regression testing for agents and teams: approved baselines, comments, review decisions, local checks, and predictable team pricing.

Do I need different tools for web vs mobile?

Not with Vizzly. Unlike DOM-based tools (Percy, Chromatic), Vizzly accepts screenshots from any source: web, native mobile, React Native, design tools.

What makes local TDD workflow different?

Vizzly's local loop shows visual changes against approved baselines as you code. Other tools usually wait until CI before review history exists.
