Vitest 4.0 发布：浏览器测试、视觉回归与 Playwright 支持
Vitest 4.0 引入了稳定的浏览器测试、视觉回归功能和无缝的 Playwright 集成，以增强 JavaScript 开发测试流程。
Introduction
Vitest 4.0 achieves a major milestone with stable Browser Mode and visual testing features. It removes experimental tags and enhances Playwright integration for better workflows.
Browser Mode Goes Stable
Browser Mode is now stable, enabling confident integration into CI/CD pipelines. Despite API changes, it signals maturity for real-world testing scenarios.
Visual Regression Testing
Visual regression testing captures UI screenshots to detect visual changes, addressing gaps in automated workflows and providing visual validation.
Playwright Integration Enhancements
Enhanced Playwright integration generates trace files and simplifies iframe testing with frameLocator API, streamlining IDE debugging.
Extended Testing Capabilities
New features include test lifecycle hooks, schema validation, and Chai assert methods, while the basic reporter is removed.
