Argos is an open source visual testing platform designed for modern engineering teams. It automatically captures screenshots of your UI and compares them against baseline images to detect visual regressions. By integrating Argos into your CI/CD pipeline, you can ensure that every pull request is visually reviewed before merging. The platform supports popular testing frameworks like Playwright, Cypress, and Storybook, and provides a dashboard to review and approve changes. Argos is self-hostable and offers a cloud version for teams that prefer a managed service. It is built with TypeScript and uses a monorepo structure with Turborepo.
