3 projects | dev.to | 24 Jun 2022

One plugin which Cypress suggests is the cypress-plugin-snapshots, but if you wander into Cypress’ plugin “market” you can see that there are more. After checking a few, I have decided to go with the cypress-image-diff-js plugin because it’s free, has a relatively simple api, seems to have a good update activity and a fair amount of GitHub stars.
