How do visual tests handle intentional design changes?

Short interview answer

The developer runs the suite, reviews each diff, and if the change is intended, regenerates the baseline as part of the same change set so the new appearance is reviewed alongside the code that caused it. The baseline images are version-controlled artifacts.

Key takeaway

Explain the underlying mental model clearly, then support it with a concrete example and its trade-offs.
