Automation Framework Design
But honestly, it may be preferable for you to use a single framework that does support both technologies (Web and Mobile) out of the box like webdriver.io or codecept.

Comparing Full Page Screenshots, Cross-Device
Extending my screenshot tests, I discovered the useful configuration option to set fullPageScreenshots: true. When I wanted to set different window sizes, I was not the first one struggling to resize the browser window in CodeceptJS programmatically.

Automating Tests using CodeceptJS and Testomat.io: First Steps
There are enough blog posts about Jest or Cypress already, so let me introduce Codecept. It comes in two flavors. There is Codeception for PHP, and there is CodeceptJS for JavaScript which we will be using here.

TCMs and exploring Testomatio
This is where https://testomat.io comes in. I discovered this TCM whilst working with https://codecept.io/ and part of their Slack group. Testomatio is built by the team behind codeceptjs, bringing in vast experience in test automation behind the scenes.

Is there a way to automatically find UI related/CSS bugs, something that works like unit testing but it's UI?
Ive used backstopjs for this in the past https://github.com/garris/BackstopJS

Comparing Full Page Screenshots, Cross-Device
There are different tools for visual screenshot testing, like BackstopJS, and Cypress.io also has a screenshot() function. In this series, I focus on writing tests with CodeceptJS.

What's your primary goal when you do screenshot testing?
I’ve been using BackstopJS for doing the regression testing, which is very useful and provides a nice report showing differences if it finds any. Recently I’ve been looking at Cypress for my other types of tests, and realized it also supports visual regression testing, though there isn’t a nice report that it outputs. Setting it up in Cypress is pretty easy though.

Help on post-deployment test
I would look into visual regression testing instead of programmatically checking for the presence of UI elements if possible. Basically , you take screenshots of all your web pages pre and post deployment. The selected tool then compares the screenshots and shows the pixel differences. I have used backstop js in the past: https://github.com/garris/BackstopJS but am not sure what tool is more used nowadays. After a quick Google search, I had a difficult time trying to find a free tool. Since you are using Cypress, I found an article where someone was able to use the snapshot plugin to create a visual regression test suite: https://www.toptal.com/web-qa/ui-visual-regression-testing . Sorry for lack of formatting. I am on mobile and this is the best I can do right now. Hope this helps.

Automated Visual Regression Testing with BackstopJS
BackstopJS is a framework that automates visual regression testing. This framework is written in JS and consists of the following tools:Puppeteer(headless chrome)+ ResembleJS(diff library). It uses a headless Chrome, in that way it's not actually opening up our Chrome browser and it's not taking screenshots that we can see. All we have to do is, write a script for simulating user scenarios and run backstopJS commands and it goes through and simulates user flows with headless chrome automatically. All we have to do is, run a simple command in the command-line tool so that it will take care of all the work for us.
