|

## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
- Screenshot tests are tests which record the content of a rendered screen and verify subsequent runs to check if the screen renders differently.
|
||||
- ElementX uses [Paparazzi](https://github.com/cashapp/paparazzi) to render, record and verify Composable. All Composable Preview will be use to make screenshot test, thanks to the usage of [Showkase](https://github.com/airbnb/Showkase).
|
||||
- The screenshot verification occurs on every pull request as part of the `tests.yml` workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
- Install Git LFS through your package manager of choice (`brew install git-lfs` | `yay -S git-lfs`).
|
||||
- Install the Git LFS hooks into the project.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# with element-android as the current working directory
|
||||
git lfs install --local
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- If installed correctly, `git push` and `git pull` will now include LFS content.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recording
|
||||
|
||||
- `./gradlew recordPaparazziDebug`
|
||||
- Paparazzi will generate images in `:tests:uitests/src/test/snapshots`, which will need to be committed to the repository using Git LFS.
|
||||
|
||||
## Verifying
|
||||
|
||||
- `./gradlew verifyPaparazziDebug`
|
||||
- In the case of failure, Paparazzi will generate images in `:tests:uitests/out/failure`. The images will show the expected and actual screenshots along with a delta of the two images.
|
||||
|
||||
## Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
- Creating Previewable Composable will automatically creates new screenshot tests.
|
||||
- After creating the new test, record and commit the newly rendered screens.
|
||||
- `./tools/git/validate_lfs.sh` can be run to ensure everything is working correctly with Git LFS, the CI also runs this check.
