BACKSTOP CHROME-HEADLESS BETA VERSION IS HERE!

See original GitHub issue

ATTENTION BACKSTOPPERS!

📣 BackstopJS now supports all existing features using chrome-headless.

I have been working with chrome-headless extensively for the past 6 weeks now and I am happy to report to you that it is WICKED STABLE.

BackstopJS been major-version-bumped to 3.x.x. (legacy mode is deprecated)

Check it out here!

npm install -g backstopjs@beta

Documentation is in progress now. Examples and feature tests are here for the moment…

https://github.com/garris/backstop-feature-tests/

All beta users: Please keep in mind that the chrome-headless feature is built on top of chromy.js https://github.com/OnetapInc/chromy. Any onBefore and onReady scripts will need to use chromy.js syntax and methods in order to work when using the chrome option. I have personally been in touch with @dotneet of chromy.js – he is very dedicated to the project and has been a huge help supporting this integration!

The chrome-headless feature is able to capture screen shots in parallel – This is already 3x faster than the previous version. There are other additions listed in the brandh readme file.

LET THE BUG BASHING BEGIN!
