Request changes

Learn how to request for changes on snapshots based on visual testing

In addition to approving snapshots with visual changes, you can also β€œrequest changes.” Keep in mind that you can only request changes on snapshots, not individual screenshots.

Request Changes for approving snapshots

When you request changes on a snapshot, a time-stamped comment is automatically created on your behalf. Request Changes - Comments

We recommend @mentioning your teammate in a β€œChanges requested” snapshot comment to notify them directly that attention is needed. Learn more about how comments and notifications work.

Changes requested build status

Although you cannot request changes on an entire build, if a snapshot within a build is marked as β€œChanges requested,” the build status will also be updated to β€œChanges requested.”

Request Changes - Build Status

Builds can go from β€œChanges requested” to β€œApproved” by overriding and approving all snapshots in the build. Builds can go from β€œChanges requested” back to β€œUnreviewed” if the β€œchanges requested” snapshots get approved, but there are additional β€œUnreviewed” snapshots.

Learn more about how this affects commit statuses and Slack notifications.

Changes requested carryforward

Snapshots previously marked as β€œChanges requested” will be carried forward into subsequent builds as long as the exact diff persists. Because changes requested snapshots are carried forward, build statuses can now be β€œChanges requested” immediately after they’ve finished processing.

Snapshots will be reverted to β€œUnreviewed” as soon as the diff changes (i.e., a fix was introduced or the visual change was undone).
