Validate Viewport Visualization

Validate viewport visualization allows you to compare the visual difference between your baseline and your current test run of your viewport. This functionality is provided as a service by Applitools, and requires integration with their Applitools Eyes app. For more information see Visual Validation (element, viewport, full-page).
