Usage instructions

Installation

  1. Install the software under test
  2. Install Node.js
  3. Download ARIA-AT and build the tests:
    $ git clone https://github.com/w3c/aria-at
    $ cd aria-at && npm install && npm run build
    
  4. Download this project's source code and install its dependencies:
    $ git clone https://github.com/w3c/aria-at-automation-harness.git
    $ cd aria-at-automation-harness && npm install
    

Environment configuration

  1. Run the AT Driver server for the assistive technology under test
  2. Run the appropriate WebDriver server (if testing with Firefox or Chrome)
  3. Run the assistive technology under test

Execution

With the required software in place and the environment correctly configured, the host.js command-line application can be used to run ARIA-AT test plans. Execute the following command to review the available arguments:

$ bin/host.js run-plan --help --show-hidden

For example, to run ARIA-AT's "Horizontal slider" test plan using NVDA and Firefox, execute the following command in a terminal:

$ node aria-at-automation-harness/bin/host.js run-plan \
    --plan-workingdir aria-at/build/tests/horizontal-slider \
    '{reference/**,test-*-nvda.*}' \
    --web-driver-url=http://127.0.0.1:4444 \
    --at-driver-url=ws://127.0.0.1:4382/session \
    --reference-hostname=127.0.0.1 \
    --web-driver-browser=firefox
