🖼️ Visual Testing (Web Apps)

For UI/UX testing, use Playwright MCP to capture and Vision AI to analyze:

Capture Screenshots

mcp_playwright_browser_navigate(url="http://localhost:8000/[page]")
mcp_playwright_browser_take_screenshot(filename="test-screenshot.png")

Analyze with Vision AI

mcp_zai-mcp-server_analyze_image(
  image_path="test-screenshot.png",
  prompt="Analyze this UI: check layout, colors, spacing, alignment, accessibility issues"
)

Visual Regression Flow

1. Capture baseline screenshot
2. Make changes
3. Capture new screenshot
4. Use Vision AI to compare and validate

Validation Loop (MANDATORY)

After writing or modifying tests, always verify:

composer test           # PHP tests pass
npm run test           # JS tests pass (if applicable)

TDD Feedback Loop:

1. Write test → Verify it FAILS (Red)
2. Implement minimal code → Verify it PASSES (Green)
3. Refactor → Verify it still PASSES
4. Repeat for edge cases

Instructions (TDD Workflow)

| Step | Action | Verification | |------|--------|--------------| | 1 | Write failing test | composer test --filter=NewTest → FAILS | | 2 | Implement minimal code | composer test --filter=NewTest → PASSES | | 3 | Refactor | composer test → ALL PASS | | 4 | Add edge cases | Repeat steps 1-3 |

Pest Patterns (Laravel)

Feature Test

test('user can create post', function () {
    $user = User::factory()->create();
    
    $this->actingAs($user)
        ->post('/posts', ['title' => 'Test'])
        ->assertRedirect('/posts');
        
    $this->assertDatabaseHas('posts', ['title' => 'Test']);
});

Unit Test

test('generates slug from title', function () {
    expect((new SlugGenerator)->generate('Hello World'))
        ->toBe('hello-world');
});

Vitest Patterns (React)

describe('PostForm', () => {
    it('submits with valid data', async () => {
        const onSubmit = vi.fn();
        render(<PostForm onSubmit={onSubmit} />);
        
        await userEvent.type(screen.getByLabelText(/title/i), 'Test');
        await userEvent.click(screen.getByRole('button', { name: /submit/i }));
        
        expect(onSubmit).toHaveBeenCalled();
    });
});

Test Commands

# Laravel
composer test
php artisan test --filter=PostTest
php artisan test --coverage

# React
npm run test
npm run test:watch
npm run test:coverage
