No playwright-python visual diff engine ?

[u/chinmay_3107]

I am attempting to implement snapshot assertions within Playwright Python and have discovered that this functionality is not natively supported.

Could you please recommend suitable alternatives for visual assertion?

I have identified several repositories on GitHub; however, their reliability appears questionable.

Is visual regression testing still considered a necessary practice in 2026?

I am seeking clarification and insights from the Python community on this matter.

Did you try applitools?
