Abstract
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for identifying program code changes causing a changed visual appearance of a graphical user interface of a computer application. A code change is received for the computer application in a build system. The code change results in a changed computer application. The changed computer application is run and screenshots of the visual appearance of the graphical user interface are captured and saved during the run. Differences between the saved screenshots are detected to identify changes in the visual appearance of the graphical user interface. The identified changes in the visual appearance are correlated with a particular section of program code causing the changes in the visual appearance.
