Can visual regression testing replace manual design QA?

Short interview answer

It catches unintended changes against a known-good state, but it can't judge whether a new design is good, only whether it differs from the baseline. It complements design review by protecting against regressions, not by evaluating new work.

Key takeaway

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