Managing a marketing website isn’t just about creating visually appealing pages—it’s about keeping them consistent, functional, and optimized as your site grows. Every update, whether it’s a new landing page, a product launch, or a seasonal campaign, introduces the risk of visual inconsistencies or unnoticed errors.
For marketing teams juggling tight deadlines and multiple updates, website testing is often the bottleneck. Traditional testing approaches—whether manual or through developer-focused tools—come with significant challenges.
This is where no-code visual testing steps in to make website testing effortless and effective.
Why Traditional Visual Testing Tools Fall Short for Marketing Teams
Marketing teams managing websites and landing pages often turn to traditional testing tools or manual methods for their testing needs. However, these approaches often fall short for non-technical teams.
Developer-Focused Tools
Traditional visual testing tools like Applitools or Percy are primarily designed for developers. These tools are great for testing complex applications or workflows, but they need technical skills to set up and maintain. Tasks like writing scripts or setting up CI/CD pipelines make these tools impractical for marketing teams managing static or semi-dynamic websites without developer resources.
Record-and-Replay: A Partial Solution
To address the complexities of developer-focused tools, some solutions now offer record-and-replay functionality, aimed at simplifying visual testing for non-technical teams. While promising, these tools come with their own limitations:
Frequent Rework: Marketing websites have frequent content changes—like redesigning a landing page or launching a new campaign—that break workflows, requiring teams to re-record tests frequently. This process becomes a bottleneck for marketing teams working in fast-paced environments.
Limited Scope for Visual Consistency: Record-and-replay tools work well for validating workflows, such as navigation paths or form submissions. However, for visual testing, they only validate the consistency of elements explicitly included in the recorded steps. They don’t address overall design consistency across static or semi-dynamic pages—a critical need for marketing websites.
No SEO Support: These tools do not address SEO gaps, such as missing meta tags or broken links, leaving marketing teams to rely on separate solutions for even basic SEO audits.
Falling Back on Manual Testing
When traditional testing tools don’t align with marketing workflows, teams often resort to manual testing. While manual testing can catch issues, it comes with well-documented challenges:
Time-Consuming: Manually checking every page, link, and interactive element after updates can take hours—or even days.
Error-Prone: Human oversight means inconsistencies, broken links, or visual errors can easily slip through the cracks.
Scaling Challenges: As websites grow, keeping track of all pages and interactions becomes nearly impossible without dedicated resources.
The result? Slower launches, missed errors, and a greater risk of user experience issues that can hurt conversions.
