I have been in a few pub conversations now about 'photoshop-driven- development' where we show the machine what the page should look like (a photoshop mock-up), and keeps failing the build until we produce something that every browser can render to look like the mock-up.


I had a nose around the WebKit source a while back, and it looked like their integration testing was done basically by pure regression tests - save a PNG (or whatever) in a directory, and compare page renderings to the last reference copy. However that will break on different platforms with different font renderings, anti-aliasing algorithms etc unless you make it fuzzy (maybe blur the output and use a subtract calculation).

Maybe you could make it work with the Watir+screenshot code that Aslak made ages ago?

This is going to rock.

Has Lazyweb started working on it yet?
