Hi

Using a photo saved in a folder locally, I want to execute the following case.

Start browser  
Go to URL  
Take a screenshot  
Compare the screenshot image to the one in the temp folder  
images match True/False  
Close browser

I watched this video but cannot get it to work. [https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/videos/image\_comparison.html](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/videos/image_comparison.html)

Thanks!

Hi Andrej - Thanks for the response! 🙂  
I have reviewed the links. I really liked the second link. It gave me some ideas on how to approach this issue. I thought it was a bit more straight forward in Katalon.
