These -semantics make it easier for Assistive Technologies to intepret and -present content to users with varying physical and cognitive abilities. - -The purpose of these tests is to help ensure that user agents support the -requirements of the Recommendations. - -The general approach for this testing is to enable both manual and automated -testing, with a preference for automation. - - -Running Tests -------------- - -In order to run these tests in an automated fashion, you will need to have a -special Assistive Technology Test Adapter (ATTA) for the platform under test. We will -provide a list of these for popular platforms here as they are made available. - -The ATTA will monitor the window under test via the platforms Accessibility -Layer, forwarding information about the Accessibility Tree to the running test -so that it can evaluate support for the various features under test. - -The workflow for running these tests is something like: - -1. Start up the ATTA for the platform under test, informing it of the location - of the test server and the user agent to be tested. -2. Start up the test driver window and select the wai-aria tests to be run - (e.g., the ARIA 1.1 tests) - click "Start" -3. A window pops up that shows a test - the description of which tells the - tester what is being tested. In an automated test, the test with proceed - without user intervention. In a manual test, some user input may be required - in order to stimulate the test. -4. The test runs. Success or failure is determined and reported to the test - driver window, which then cycles to the next test in the sequence. -5. Repeat steps 2-4 until done. -6. Download the JSON format report of test results, which can then be visually - inspected, reported on using various tools, or passed on to W3C for - evaluation and collection in the Implementation Report via github. - -**Remember that while these tests are written to help exercise implementations, -their other (important) purpose is to increase confidence that there are -interoperable implementations.** So, implementers are the audience, but these -tests are not meant to be a comprehensive collection of tests for a client that -might implement the Recommendation. - - -Capturing and Reporting Results -------------------------------- - -As tests are run against implementations, if the results of testing are -submitted to [test-results](https://github.com/w3c/test-results/) then they will -be automatically included in documents generated by -[wptreport](https://www.github.com/w3c/wptreport). The same tool can be used -locally to view reports about recorded results. - - -Writing Tests -------------- - -If you are interested in writing tests for this environment, see the -associated [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md) document. |
