This repo contains a test suite and harness for assessing assistive technology (AT) support of ARIA. These tests are designed to be modular and embeddable in higher-level applications. A web app for managing test cycles and reporting test results (ARIA-AT-App) is also being developed and is planned to be available on w3.org in June 2020.
The initial scope of this test suite is manual testing of a select set of desktop screen readers. Tests are written as assertions of expected screen reader behavior when using example implementations of design patterns in the ARIA Authoring Practices Guide.
This repo includes a prototype runner that you can use to run the manual tests. Production runs of the tests to produce validated reports will be run with ARIA-AT-App.
Documentation is available in the wiki.
You can participate by:
- Joining the community group
- Signing up as a tester for the Pilot Test (May 27 - June 2)
- Reviewing assertions of existing test plans
- Writing more tests
- Fixing a good first issue
