Percy

Hi Team, I am looking for a tool to best work on visual test automation - Just to capture screenshots each day and compare on the pre-production site.

Currently, I am evaluating Percy, Ghost Inspector, and Applitools (no doubt Applitools is great with its comparison mechanism but cost-wise it's a bit on the higher end at the moment). Could you please let me know which one will be the best tool for visual comparisons?

Hi there, what tool would you recommend for screenshot comparison tool for Drupal sites? I'm leaning towards Percy as it does everything we need (i.e screenshot comparison only), but want to make sure I make the right choice and don't miss out on anything by choosing it over Ghost Inspector.
