+Wai-aria: Tests for the WAI-ARIA Recommendations |

|
+================================================ |
+ |
+The [WAI ARIA Recommendations](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria) |
+define extensions to HTML4/5 for support of extended semantics. 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. |
+ |
+ |
