Visual Testing Supports PDF to PDF comparison

[kazurayam]

There would be a way, though it is long to go.

You can develop some way to convert a PDF to HTML, and convert the HTML to PNG images. Then you can use Visual Testing to compare the resulting PNG images. This will effectively compare the original PDFs.

The following post descibes a sample where I converted a PDF to HTML.

How to assert on content of downloaded PDF file

Hi, I am trying to find a way to assert the actual content of a PDF. I know there is such a thing as PDFBox (Apache PDFBox | A Java PDF Library) , but don’t know how it fits into the Katalon eco system. Do I need to include a jar file into my katalon project? Which version fits? How do I write the custom keyword to do a simple content check? I would hope that this has already been done by someone on the community, so there is no need for me to start inventing that wheel again… What do I have …

You should be able to find a way to convert the HTML to PNG (taking screenshots), comparing PNG images using Katalon Studio yourself.
