Frequently Asked Questions

What is Percy in BrowserStack?

Percy helps teams automate visual testing. It captures screenshots, compares them against the baseline, and highlights visual changes.

What is the best alternative to Percy?

LambdaTest's Smart UI is the best alternative when it comes to BrowserStack's Percy. With Smart UI, you can perform visual regression testing in just one click and find Visual UI Regression bugs easily with the help of Smart Testing over 10,000+ different browsers, operating systems, and real device combinations.

What are the main differences between Percy and SmartUI?

The main differences between Percy and SmartUI come down to pricing and screenshot limits. When comparing the Desktop + Mobile plans of Percy and SmartUI, SmartUI is more cost-efficient. Percy’s plan at $599 per month for 25,000 screenshots is approximately 60% more expensive than SmartUI’s plan, which costs $239 per month for the same number of screenshots. This shows that SmartUI offers better value for the same amount of testing coverage at a much lower cost.

How do Percy and SmartUI manage dynamic content and UI changes?

Both Percy and SmartUI have mechanisms to handle dynamic content and UI changes. But SmartUI takes this a step further with its AI-native SmartIgnore feature. SmartIgnore is a next-gen solution specifically designed for dynamic web apps and frequently updated content. It intelligently filters out minor, irrelevant visual changes, like shadows or anti-aliasing, that don’t impact the user experience. By distinguishing between significant changes and irrelevant shifts, SmartIgnore reduces false positives, ensuring that only the most impactful visual differences are flagged. This makes SmartUI's handling of dynamic content particularly effective, giving you greater confidence in your UI's visual integrity.

Which tool provides more detailed test reports: Percy or SmartUI?

SmartUI provides more detailed test reports than Percy due to its advanced AI-native debugging and AI-native test analytics. SmartUI offers powerful features like SmartUI Snapshot, Builds Summary, Builds Trends, Screenshot Trends, and coverage insights for browsers, devices, and viewports. Additionally, its Copilot AI—an NLP-based tool—lets users ask questions and get insights post-test run, making it easier to understand complex issues. These advanced AI capabilities and detailed reporting features make SmartUI the better option for in-depth visual testing reports.

Which one offers better AI-driven capabilities for visual testing: Percy or SmartUI?

While both Percy and SmartUI use AI-driven capabilities for visual testing, SmartUI stands out as the better option due to its advanced AI-native debugging features. It includes AI-native visual testing, pixel-to-pixel comparisons, and DOM-based comparisons. SmartUI’s AI detects UI anomalies with high accuracy, identifying visual defects like incorrect styles, misalignments, font issues, overlapping modules, hidden or missing elements, and off-screen renderings. This ensures that your application maintains both visual and structural consistency, providing a polished and seamless user experience.
