Hi @arvind.choudhary, thank you for your questions about TrueTest!
I want to clarify an important distinction: TrueTest does not perform pixel-based or color-based visual regression testing. The approach you’re describing—handling visual noise, pixel shifts, color changes, and ignoring zone - is addressed by our Visual Testing product, which is specifically designed for AI-powered visual validation.
How TrueTest Actually Works:
TrueTest takes a fundamentally different approach focused on user behavior analysis rather than visual comparisons:
-
Element-based Detection: TrueTest captures and analyzes element locators (XPath, CSS selectors, IDs, Smart Locators, etc.) from real user interactions
-
Dynamic Analysis: Our AI analyzes these captured locators to identify:
-
Dynamic test objects (elements that change frequently)
-
Stable test objects (reliable elements for test automation)
-
Critical user flows that need attention
-
-
Behavioral Intelligence: TrueTest focuses on suggesting the most critical flows based on actual end-user behavior patterns on your application, helping you prioritize what truly matters for regression testing
To directly answer your questions:
-
Visual noise handling (animations, loaders, timestamps): These are handled by Visual Testing, not TrueTest
-
Ignore regions and visual adaptation: Also features of Visual Testing
-
TrueTest’s value proposition is in capturing real user journeys and converting them into actionable test automation insights, not visual regression detection
