 # @datashard/snapshot
 
-> Adds JSON Snapshot comparison to Cypress
+> Adds support for Value, Object, and Dom Element Snapshot Testing to Cypress
 
-## ⚠️ Breaking Changes ⚠️
-
-- With V3, the `readFileMaybe` task has been removed, we now rely on `cy.fixture` internally. 
-- the previous `SNAPSHOT_UPDATE` Environment/Config Variable has been changed to `updateSnapshots`
-
-> [!DANGER] 
-This means that previous tests will likely be broken, *please make sure that your tests pass before updating to the latest version of this Plugin*.
-
-This current release will be released as `3.0.0-beta`, should Bugs be found by me or my Employer, I will open Issues/PRs to fix those, should anyone else find Bugs/Edgecases, etc. please open an Issue.
+## Breaking Changes
+> [!WARNING]
+The `readFileMaybe` task was required in previous Versions, this has been changed so this Module now uses the `cy.fixture` Command to get the contents of existing files. This means that this module will only be able to write new tests if `updateSnapshots` (previously `SNAPSHOT_UPDATE`) is set to true through Environment Variables or through the Cypress config.

 ## Config
-
 You can pass `updateSnapshots` and `useFolders` as options in the `cypress.config.js` file
 
 ![Example Settings for the Module](./.github/assets/config.png)
+
 Alternatively, you can also add `snapshotUpdate` as an Environment Variable to update your snapshots.
 
 Simply pass `--env updateSnapshots=true` when running Cypress.
 
+> If you don't use the default fixture folder, you will also need to add `snapshotPath` to this module's config with the same path you use for `fixtureFolder`.
+
 ## Usage
 
-If properly added, usage of this plugin is rather simple, just add `.snapshot()` to cypress functions that return valid JSON. (i.e. `cy.wrap`)

-When properly added, you can chain `.snapshot()` off of `cy` functions like `cy.wrap`, just make sure they return valid JSON.

-If you have two or more Snapshots in the same Block, the next one ***WILL*** always overwrite the previous one while updating, causing the First Snapshot in the Block to Fail.
-While running your Tests, if a value changed, it will, of course, no longer match the snapshot and throw an Error.
+If a step wasn't named, it will instead use the `<It>`for the file name, though this means that you will not be able to have more than 1 Snapshot in your It Block, as it would overwrite the previously created Snapshot files.
