About Percy
Percy is a visual testing service for web and mobile apps. It compares screenshots of your interface to catch unexpected visual changes before they reach customers.
What it does
Percy takes snapshots of pages during your test runs and shows the visual differences for review. Teams can check changes on each code change, instead of relying on slow manual visual checks. The service also offers Visual Scanner, which watches a list of URLs for visual changes without any code.
