I created a repository where I tried to reproduce the problems I found, when setting up visual testing: https://github.com/htho/wdio-repro-visual-service

Config of WebdriverIO + @wdio/visual-service

export const config: WebdriverIO.Config = {
    ...defaultConfig,

    logLevels: {
        "webdriver": "error",
        "chromedriver": "error",
    },

    reporters: [],
    
    // TODO: REPORT setting up this, throws an error, but tests continue...
    // ERROR @wdio/utils:shim: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read
    resolveSnapshotPath(testPath, _snapExtension) {
        const cwd = process.cwd();
        const testPathRel = path.relative(cwd, testPath);
        const joined = path.join(cwd, "screenshots", testPathRel);
        return joined;
    },

    services: [["visual", {}]],
}

Describe the bug

The tests run, but there is an error EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. clone repository
2. npm run test:resolveSnapshotPath

Expected behavior

There shouldn't be an error, because (it seems) everything works as expected.

Hi @htho

Thanks for submitting this issue. Are you able to create a PR for this? Help is much appreciated

@htho

There are two things, first of all your solution results in a strange path like /Users/wswebcreation/Git/wdio/issues/wdio-repro-visual-service/screenshots/test/specs/test.e2e.ts
Secondly, the first time this work, the second time you run this the error EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read is thrown. This seems to be an issue in the expect-webdriverio-library. I'll move this issue to the repo
