Use this guide as a compact release reference, then validate the same breakpoints in Sizzy with synchronized devices and screenshot evidence.
Freeze the comparison state
Visual regression review needs matching conditions. Make sure baseline and candidate captures use the same route, viewport, account state, data state, and loaded assets.
Wait for fonts and images before capturing
Use the same logged-in or logged-out state
Disable or document dynamic banners
Keep full-page and above-fold captures separate
Prioritize release blockers
Small spacing changes can wait when conversion-critical UI is broken. Review navigation, CTAs, forms, dialogs, and sticky elements before polishing visual differences.
Primary CTA is visible and tappable
No text overlaps or clips
No unexpected horizontal scroll appears
Dialogs and menus fit at mobile widths
Release checklist
Use the same viewport matrix for every release comparison.
Label intentional design changes before review.
Separate blocking regressions from cosmetic differences.
Attach approved screenshots to the launch evidence packet.
