Mar 1, 2026

March 2026: Delivered key features to improve identification and stability of the Percy CLI, along with a robust regression testing framework and CLI enhancements. Implemented Enhanced Project Configuration Schema with nested project.id and project.name for clearer multi-project identification and configuration management. Introduced Regression Testing Framework and Percy CLI Enhancements, including a Node.js-based test runner, YAML-driven snapshot configurations, improved test management, and a verbose mode for detailed output. Strengthened CI by updating regression workflows, permissions, and dependency handling. Fixed critical gaps such as enabling the project config test suite, adding verbose snapshot output, simplifying regression triggers, and tightening security/test tooling. Overall, these changes yield faster, more reliable regression feedback, easier onboarding for multi-project setups, and greater visibility into test results.
