Robot Framework resources for automating accessibility tools
Project description
Robot Framework Accessibility Testing Libraries
This package bundles various Firefox-extensions for web site accessibility checking with some glue and pre-baked Robot Framework keyword libraries to enable automated accessibility regression testing with Selenium.
This package will not replace human made accessibility auditions. Nor will passing automated accessibility checks mean that your site is accessible.
Once your site has been audited on accessibility, however, these tools could help you to detect regression in accessibility with automated and continuously integrated accessibility tests.
(This package includes a Firefox profile with unmodified WAVE Toolbar and unmodified WCAG Contrast checker extensions pre-installed. WAVE toolbar, its interface elements, design elements, functionality, and underlying code are (c) WebAIM.)
Installation
$ pip install robotframework-selenium2accessibility
Example test
*** Settings ***
Resource Accessibility/wavetoolbar.robot
Resource Accessibility/contrastchecker.robot
Suite setup Run keywords
... Open accessibility test browser Maximize Browser Window
Suite teardown Close all browsers
*** Test Cases ***
Test single page
[Documentation] Single page test could interact with the target
... app as much as required and end with triggering
... the accessibility scan.
Go to http://www.plone.org/
Check WAVE accessibility errors
Test multiple pages
[Documentation] Template based test can, for example, take a list
... of URLs and perform accessibility scan for all
... of them. While regular test would stop for the
... first failure, template based test will just jump
... to the next URL (but all failures will be reported).
[Template] Check both WAVE and color contrast
http://www.plone.org/ wave=0 contrast=6
http://www.drupal.org/ wave=0 contrast=5
http://www.joomla.org/ wave=0 contrast=9
http://www.wordpress.org/ wave=1 contrast=5
