Hi there, maker of Touca here. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Being able to visualize the differences along side pull requests is helpful. We currently provide that insight for each commit using Github Actions job summary and plan to add a GitHub App in the future to report differences as a PR comment. Touca also allows locally storing the captured data points for users who like to do so . We argue that visualizing the differences shouldn't require storing snapshot files in version control because 1. they are inconvenient to maintain 2. what you can store in them is limited to what your application produces as output. I've written a bit about this in our docs here: https://touca.io/docs/guides/vs-snapshot/ Would really appreciate hearing if you find this argument reasonable.
