Using AI to Automate Visual Testing for Native Mobile Applications

In the digital age, software development drives innovation and delivers value to users. Ensuring quality, security, and performance through rigorous testing is crucial, as UI testing plays a vital role in detecting visual bugs that can negatively impact user experience and revenue. Traditional methods like snapshot testing often struggle with subtle issues and actionable feedback.

Motivated by these limitations, our project focuses on enhancing Visual Testing Automation by integrating AI-powered visual testing into the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline. This approach is designed to detect UI defects that are often challenging for humans to identify, significantly reducing false positives and minimizing manual effort in visual regression testing.

Our AI-powered visual testing framework improves deployment efficiency by automatically identifying critical UI changes and filtering out insignificant variations. It supports both iOS and Android applications and has demonstrated high accuracy in detecting visual errors. Integrated into the CI/CD pipeline, it triggers tests with every code commit or on a scheduled basis, providing immediate feedback to development teams through automated notifications.

This project ultimately aims to improve software quality and user experience by leveraging advanced visual testing techniques within a robust CI/CD framework, enhancing accuracy, consistency, and efficiency throughout the software development life cycle.
