Simple visual regression testing

The audience will be expected to have a general understanding about how test cases are set up in Django

In this talk I will start with how to set up your existing test environment with automated visual tests using Python and Selenium. Then we will discuss a few pit falls that I ran into when implementing visual regression testing

Visual regression testing is an afterthought to many developers working on lean development teams. We will go over how to create automated visual tests that are both scalable and simple to implement.
