Can you post a link to more info?

Hello,
I am Vikas, GSOC student working on Automatic cross-language
screenshots for user documentation. My GSOC proposal was:
1. To tag the scenarios whose screenshots are required.
2. Have an after hook for that tag, which takes the screenshot.
3. Also in after hook I can perform any cropping.
4. The cropped images will be uploaded in wikimedia commons.
The above steps are run as a new jenkins job for each language in
order to get cross-language screenshot.

Could use something like pdiff:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62633
Would compare the screenshot during the 'test' pipeline, against
the screenshot from the last post-merge for the same branch.
Wouldn't and shouldn't give you test passing / test failing. It
would instead report to Gerrit with how much (if) there is
different (percentage/ratio or something), and you can then follow
the link to look at it yourself. Especially if you didn't intend
for visual changes.
Been using it in some smaller projects and has been very helpful
and time saving.

Agreed, but it would be good for this mechanism to be as
decoupled from the tests themselves as possible. This way it can
be reused and improved by other people (outside of WMF).

Yes, but I think it might be possible to share the underlying
mechanism of taking screen shots among all the projects that
want to do that, for whatever purposes they have.

This wouldn't just be when a test fails. It would be used to
detect
regressions in appearance at given steps....
e.g. Given I go to the login page When I trigger an error
Then I see
an error message And the login page looks exactly like it
was a week
ago.
