Easy VRT

Easy VRT is a GitHub Action that simplifies visual regression testing by providing a workflow template.

Usage

Example workflow:

name: vrt

run-name: visual regression test

on: pull_request

permissions:
  contents: read

jobs:
  lookup:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    outputs:
      actual-sha: ${{ steps.lookup.outputs.actual-sha }}
      actual-cache-hit: ${{ steps.lookup.outputs.actual-cache-hit }}
      expected-sha: ${{ steps.lookup.outputs.expected-sha }}
      expected-cache-hit: ${{ steps.lookup.outputs.expected-cache-hit }}
    steps:
      - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
        id: lookup
        with:
          mode: lookup

  expected:
    if: ${{ !cancelled() && !failure() && needs.lookup.outputs.expected-cache-hit != 'true' }}
    needs: lookup
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          ref: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.expected-sha }}

      # >>> add step to create expected image

      # <<< add step to create expected image

      - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
        with:
          mode: expected
          expected-dir: your-expected-image-dir # set the directory where the expected image is stored
          expected-cache-key: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.expected-sha }}

  actual:
    if: ${{ !cancelled() && !failure() && needs.lookup.outputs.actual-cache-hit != 'true' }}
    needs: lookup
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          ref: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.actual-sha }}

      # >>> add step to create actual image

      # <<< add step to create actual image

      - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
        with:
          mode: actual
          actual-dir: your-actual-image-dir # set the directory where the actual image is stored
          actual-cache-key: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.actual-sha }}

  compare:
    if: ${{ !cancelled() && !failure() }}
    needs: [lookup, expected, actual]
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
        with:
          mode: compare
          expected-cache-key: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.expected-sha }}
          actual-cache-key: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.actual-sha }}

Example for Flutter Applications

This section demonstrates how to adapt Easy VRT for Flutter applications, highlighting necessary changes in the workflow.

expected

-      # >>> add step to create expected image
+      - uses: subosito/flutter-action@v2

+      - run: |
+          flutter pub get
+          flutter test --update-goldens --tags=golden

       - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
         with:
           mode: expected
-          expected-dir: your-expected-image-dir # set the directory where the expected image is stored
+          expected-dir: test/golden_test/goldens
           expected-cache-key: ${{ needs.lookup.outputs.expected-sha }}

actual

-      # >>> add step to create actual image
+      - uses: subosito/flutter-action@v2

-      # <<< add step to create actual image
+      - run: |
+          flutter pub get
+          flutter test --update-goldens --tags=golden

       - uses: yorifuji/easy-vrt@v1
         with:
           mode: actual
-          actual-dir: your-actual-image-dir # set the directory where the actual image is stored
