You're on NodeJS 18, there's an open ticket for the core of this module to upgrade it to that. It hasn't been fixed and released. If you revert back to NodeJS 16 it will work
this is actually an issue with canvas as there isn't currently and arm64 build, there is a workaround for the time being https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/wiki/Installation:-Mac-OS-X
I used the homebrew installation and it works
For info, this is the issue on node-canvas board Automattic/node-canvas#1662
I'm using Mac OS Ventura 13.3.1 with Node.js 18.12.1 and 16.20.0 and image comparison plugin 5.0.2. The workaround with homebrew is not working for me. I'm a little bit frustrated on that canvas issue. Maybe someone has some more hints for me?
I still get messages like that: ERROR @wdio/utils:initialiseServices: Error: Couldn't initialise "wdio-image-comparison-service"
That seems to me that the image-comparison-service is not working for me :(
This should be fixed with #118
