Summary
Section 3.11 ("Detect visual issues with automated tools") currently mentions web-focused visual regression tools — wraith, PhantomCSS, Applitools, and Percy. This PR adds a mention of Sherlo, a visual testing platform purpose-built for React Native Storybook.
Sherlo captures screenshots of components on real iOS and Android simulators in the cloud and automatically detects visual regressions across platforms. Adding it fills a gap in the guide's coverage: the existing tools target web applications, while Sherlo addresses the same problem for React Native — where cross-device visual consistency is especially challenging.
