Use case
Automated regression testing, beyond the suite
Regression testing protects what you already know. Locodera adds a second layer: comparing each scan with the previous one so returning bugs and broken flows are visible.
Last updated October 31, 2026
Who this is for
Teams that already have a regression suite and need independent coverage.
The problem
- A passing suite can hide a regression outside its assertions.
- Resolved bugs quietly return after a refactor.
- Scan history is often just a list of pass/fail runs.
How Locodera handles it
- 01
Baseline
The first scan records pages, flows, checks and confirmed bugs.
- 02
Compare
Each later scan is diffed against the previous one.
- 03
Flag
New bugs, resolved bugs, returning bugs and failed checks are separated.
- 04
Score
Regressions increase the risk score and can trigger a Don't Ship verdict.
Relevant capabilities
Regression diffs
New, resolved and returning issues per scan.
3/3 verification
Only findings that reproduce every time are confirmed.
Don't Ship Score
A deterministic release verdict with reasons.
App memory
Pages, flows and bugs persist across scans.
FAQs
Does it replace regression tests?+
No. It complements them with exploratory and cross-scan checks.
How are regressions detected?+
Confirmed fingerprints that return, plus checks that passed in the previous scan and fail now.
Can it run after every deploy?+
Yes. Use the per-project deploy webhook or a 6h/12h/daily schedule.
