In Layout test, when the test is done, for the mismatch case (With -expected.png), the generated result will be a html file, and provide very friendly UI to compare the pixel differences.(Just like attachment https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=832537).
But for pixel_test the failed results look like:
Pixels do not match!

../../components/viz/service/display/renderer_pixeltest.cc:1205: Failure
Does it possible use the layout result tools in the pixel test?
