Then run the app

node app.js

Options

protocol: string

Either https or http.

rootUrls: array

Specify two root urls without the protocol.

pages: array

Pages that will be appended to the root url and compared. Trailing slash on the page is required if that page redirects to another page e.g to the https version of the page. PhantomJS does not handle redirects very well.

Equals will take screenshots and store them in the folder you specify within the current directory.

logfile: string

All errors are logged to this file within the current directory.
