Lands the browser-test infrastructure deferred from BON-3's second PR, as PR 1 of BON-4 (measured bones need a real layout engine to be tested at all).

  • Vitest browser mode via the Playwright provider bundled with vite-plus, headless Chromium, as a separate browser project; vp test --project unit keeps the jsdom suite standalone.
  • Screenshot tests for the three skeleton renderers (React createBones with forceBones, <bones-boundary force> + auto.css, bare aria-busy + auto.css) with data-bone-animate="none" for determinism.
  • Baselines are platform-suffixed: linux ones are committed (generated by the bones-visual CI job), darwin ones are gitignored.
  • CI: bones-test now runs --project unit; new bones-visual job installs Chromium and runs the browser project.

Two library findings surfaced while building the fixtures (pre-existing, not addressed here): <BonesForce> does not force skeletons in plain client renders (React.cache() shares nothing outside RSC), and auto.css block bones do not occlude an already-loaded <img> (background paints under the image). The fixtures use forceBones and a src-less <img> instead.

Part of BON-4. PR 2 (measured bones) follows.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Added browser smoke tests to verify rendered content has valid dimensions.
    • Added visual regression coverage for React, custom-element, and accessibility-related renderers.
    • Automated Chromium checks now capture screenshots and diagnostic attachments when visual tests fail.
    • Unit and browser tests run as separate validation suites.
    • Added deterministic rendering checks for more consistent results across environments.
  • Chores
    • Improved cross-platform screenshot handling.
    • Updated coverage checks to focus on the unit test suite.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Bones test setup separates unit and Chromium browser projects. It adds browser smoke and visual tests, configures screenshot comparison, updates scripts and dependencies, and runs visual tests in CI with failure artifacts.

Changes

Bones browser testing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Browser test project configuration
.gitignore, packages/bones/package.json, packages/bones/vite.config.ts
Vitest separates unit and Chromium browser projects. Coverage remains enabled for source files. Playwright and platform-specific screenshot handling are configured.
Browser smoke and visual test cases
packages/bones/tests/browser/*
Browser tests verify real layout dimensions and capture screenshots for React, custom-element, and bare aria-busy renderers.
CI unit and visual test jobs
.github/workflows/ci.yml
CI runs unit tests explicitly and adds a Chromium visual regression job that uploads screenshots and Vitest attachments on failure.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to bbe32

The browser visual test suite now includes its required Linux reference screenshots, so no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

In @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Around line 78-83: Update the “Upload screenshots” artifact configuration to
upload the generated failure attachments from the Vitest output directory
packages/bones/.vitest-attachments/ instead of the committed __screenshots__
baseline directory, while preserving the existing failure-only condition and
artifact name.

In `@packages/bones/tests/browser/visual.test.tsx`:
- Around line 70-89: Commit the Linux Chromium screenshot baseline files for the
three assertions in the tests “react renderer with forceBones”, “element
renderer with auto.css”, and “bare aria-busy region with auto.css”. Add the
files resolved by resolveScreenshotPath: react-force-chromium-linux.png,
element-force-chromium-linux.png, and bare-busy-chromium-linux.png.
