Worked on enhancing delta visualization testing for the cashapp/paparazzi repository, focusing on the Paparazzi Gradle Plugin. Developed a new feature that improves the clarity of image comparison by updating the OffByTwo differ to highlight similar pixels in blue within delta images, which aids in debugging and test feedback. Employed Java and Kotlin to implement these changes, leveraging Gradle plugin development and image comparison techniques. The work emphasized test-driven development and increased test coverage, aiming to streamline visual regression testing and accelerate feedback cycles in CI pipelines. No major bugs were addressed, as efforts centered on feature delivery and visualization quality.
