Regression testing is done whenever changes in the page are made. Alternatively, if a new browser is released. Here is a simple instruction set on how to set up a regression test in Browserbite.
1. Create initial test
Start by creating a new test of a web page and select “Change baseline and other options”.
A new menu will open. From this menu, select the “Targets” drop down list and choose “Chrome only”.
Press “Go” and wait for the process to end. Open the report page, right-click on the Chrome thumbnail and select “Copy image URL”.
2. Create a new test with a custom baseline
Now select “New test” from the top menu. Fill the URL, press “Change baseline and other options” and select “Upload file” for baseline.
Paste the image URL from the clipboard to the “File name” form and click “Open”.
Again select “Targets” drop down list and select “Chrome only”.
Finally press “GO”.
3. Repeat the test
Now you have a test where the baseline image is fixed. When you want to conduct a regression test, just press “Run again” on the request page and wait for the result.
Alternatively, you can press “Run again” from the “Requests” page.
