Description

Web Accessibility Testing is an emerging field in I.T industry and both front end engineers and quality engineers need to know how to build and test applications defect free? Many jobs across USA,UK,Australia are listed with accessibility as a 'required skillset' in job applications hence learning web accessibility testing is important for manual,automation testers!

What is Web Accessibility?

Users with disabilities such as visually impaired or ‘physically challenged’ (term used in this section as ‘special users’) are required accessible web applications for ease of use. This has been suggested as part of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (known as ‘WCAG’)/General Services Administration Section 508 Standards(known as ‘Section 508’) in detail. Providing proper text for each section of the page and facilitating best user experience on the web pages are very important while providing accessibility features to web applications.

Note: Visually impaired has classification specified by Centers of Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) and it is not the only reason for performing accessibility tests. Accessibility ensures the special users with disabilities can access the same web pages what normal users access.

In this course, selenium based BDD scripts are explained using Javascript as a programming language hence knowing Javascript is essential for this section; This is not a automation or selenium focused training but purely focusing on accessibility testing. This is an amazing course to learn and perform web accessibility verification through manual and automation tests using selenium,pa11y,axe,zoomtext and web accessibility toolbar!
