We can get some inspiration from squidpy for testing the output of the different plots that napari-sparrow generates:

"Ground truth" matplotlib output is stored as images in the tests folder.
A PlotTester class saves a matplotlib plotting context to an image file and then compares this image against the ground truth image.
Plot output images are compared using matplotlib's compare_images function.

There are unit tests for plotting functions of sparrow here, https://github.com/saeyslab/napari-sparrow/tree/main/src/sparrow/_tests/test_image. Due to non deterministic nature of most plots (os, python version, library versions),will close this issue for now.
