Have searched meta and the internet high and low, but people talking about using Percy and other visual testing tools on a Discourse site are nowhere to be found.

Percy support says it’s possible and recommended trying Puppeteer or Cypress. Asking for direction before I go `bin-bashing` all over the place.

Any thoughts guys?

I’d recommend using Puppeteer. Apart from testing you’ll end up with a decent automation tool as well.
