What are the different type of Chromatic builds?
Standard build
The standard Chromatic build triggered by the CLI or via CI. Chromatic captures a snapshots of all your test and compares them to baselines.
Infrastructure build
An infrastructure build involves an infrastructure upgrade. It snapshots your baselines and recent changes in the updated browser environment to prevent false positives. You can read more about our infrastructure upgrades in our capture release notes.
When a standard build goes through an infrastructure upgrade, Chromatic creates a duplication of the main branch. This is called an infrastructure build. Please note that the build number will remain the same.
Local build
A local build is generated using the Visual Test Addon to run Chromatic from within Storybook.
Updating the baselines in local builds only affects other local builds on a given branch. This allows you to iterate quickly in development without affecting teammates.
