Shot is a Gradle plugin and Android library for writing and running screenshot tests on Android apps, supporting both regular views and Jetpack Compose. It provides a ScreenshotTest interface, a custom test runner, and Gradle tasks to record and verify screenshots with visual reports.

Use cases

  • run screenshot tests for android apps
  • visual regression testing for jetpack compose ui
  • compare activity screenshots in instrumentation tests
  • record and verify ui snapshots on ci
  • detect unintended ui rendering changes in android

When to choose

  • you need screenshot/visual regression testing for Android views or Compose
  • you want simple Gradle-integrated record/verify workflow with HTML reports
  • you run UI tests on emulators or CI and need rendering-diff detection

When to avoid

  • you need screenshot testing on iOS or non-Android platforms
  • you only need unit tests without UI snapshot comparison
  • your project doesn't use Gradle or Android instrumentation tests
