Sounds like a good application for a blink comparator - I can remember using a mechanical one at the Perth Observatory many years ago during a school holiday job that my physics teacher setup for me, but they're now available as software. You load two images, register them (i.e. align a point on each image to co-incide), and then switch rapidly between them, which makes any difference between the images immediately obvious.

This application isn't about checking the regtests haven't changed, but rather to check that they're good regtests. There are over 1000, so checking they've not changed is done automatically.
