• AUTO_LOGIN_PASSWORD_SELECTOR: Password input field selector
• AUTO_LOGIN_SUBMIT_SELECTOR: Login button selector
• AUTO_LOGIN_SUCCESS_SELECTOR: Element selector after successful login (optional)
• AUTO_LOGIN_URL_PATTERN: Login page URL match pattern for auto-detecting login page redirects

Visual Test Configuration

• TEST_SELECTOR: Selector for element to screenshot, captures entire page if not set
• TEST_WAIT_FOR_SELECTOR: Wait for specific element before taking screenshot
• TEST_WAIT_TIMEOUT: Timeout for waiting for element (milliseconds)
• TEST_THRESHOLD: Pixel difference threshold for image comparison (0-100), default 100
• TEST_IGNORE_SELECTORS: List of selectors to ignore during comparison, comma separated
• TEST_VIEWPORT_WIDTH: Browser viewport width, default 1280
• TEST_VIEWPORT_HEIGHT: Browser viewport height, default 720

Project Configuration

• PROJECT_ROOT: Absolute path to project root directory for storing screenshots and files

Notes

1. All configuration items are optional, but it’s recommended to configure essential login information and viewport size
2. Screenshots will be saved in the screenshots folder in the project root directory
3. Comparison results will generate three files:
   • current.png: Current test screenshot
   • baseline.png: Baseline screenshot
   • diff.png: Difference comparison image
4. On first run, the current screenshot will automatically be set as the baseline image
