+
+## E2E Test Plan
+- **Setup**:
+  - [ ] Log in with a user that has appropriate permissions
+  - [ ] Navigate to the relevant page/section where this feature appears
+  - [ ] Ensure test data exists (scanned artifacts, SBOM data, or seed data as needed)
+- **Core verification**:
+  - [ ] Verify side-by-side comparison view renders correctly with two versions
+  - [ ] Verify additions, removals, and changes are visually highlighted
+  - [ ] Verify diff data matches the expected delta between versions
+- **Edge cases**:
+  - [ ] Verify graceful handling when backend API is unavailable (error state)
+  - [ ] Verify responsive layout at different viewport sizes
+  - [ ] Verify accessibility (keyboard navigation, screen reader labels, ARIA attributes)
