## Notes

Chromatic is a hosted testing service for user interfaces. Its command-line client, installed from npm as the chromatic package, uploads builds to the service. The service integrates with Storybook, Vitest, Playwright and Cypress, so tests written for those tools can be reused.

Chroma Software, Inc. makes it, and the same team maintains Storybook. The [enterprise page](https://www.chromatic.com/enterprise) describes SAML 2.0 single sign-on and fine-grained roles.

## Worth knowing

The service processes personal data in the United States, as its [privacy policy](https://www.chromatic.com/docs/privacy-policy) states. Plans and their limits are listed on the [pricing page](https://www.chromatic.com/pricing).
